Alright, so i did a couple of checks to ensure this wasnt case. I only have Windows Defender and Windows Firewall protecting my computer at this moment. I made sure that program was allowed through on both these programs, and made sure they were allowing through port 8008 by making exeptions for it. I then also disabled both of them to make sure they could not interfere. I then ran Swarm Agent and Unreal Engine, did a build test on a project, and i still got the “Failed to connect to Swarm.” error, along with log file:
To make sure i could write this within sites limited characters, i cut out part where Swarm Agent initializes. What you see below is what was added after i hit build. ( part before this is pretty much identical to log i posted before )
07:08:00: [Connection] Detected new local connection from same process ID as an existing one, closing old one
07:08:00: [CloseConnection] Closing connection 4898A497 using handle 4898A497
07:08:00: [CloseConnection] Connection confirmed for disconnection 4898A497
07:08:00: [CloseConnection] Connection disconnected 4898A497
07:08:02: [MaintainConnections] Local connection has closed (4898A497)
07:08:02: [MaintainConnections] Removed connection 4898A497
I also did an additional check to see if port was running at all on my computer, and did a netstat -a -n command in a elevated command prompt. almost at top it showed TCP 0.0.0.0:8008 as a LISTENING state, then i did the ’ netsh firewall show state ’ command, which showed me this:
which shows that both TCP and UDP on port 8008 is allowed through and open.
This might trigger more questions than it answers, but i do hope it helps
