Hello,

Either hserver is in a bad state or network communication is being blocked.

Try restarting hserver. Easiest way to do that is to kill the existing one and then run Houdini. Houdini will automatically re-launch hserver.

The other thing to check is System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Firewall. If the firewall is on you can either temporarily turn it off (for testing purposes) or allow incoming connections to hserver.

Cheers,
Rob
