Python socket errno 111

Question

so when I run

import socket
import time
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind(('', 8088))
s.listen(10)
while 1:
 c, addr = s.accept()
 print c, addr
 c.send('hello')
 c.close()
s.shutdown()

and

import socket 
s = socket.socket()
s.connect(('127.0.0.1', 8080))
while 1:
 print s.recv(2048)

I get errno 111 connection refused. What am I doing wrong

Answer 1

s.bind(('', 8088))

You bind on port 8088

s.connect(('127.0.0.1', 8080))

But attempt to connect to port 8080.

Note that 8088 (bind) is not the same as 8080 (connect) and that's why the connect fails, i.e. connection refused.
