Tonight I keep getting an error message that I couldn’t connect to PHD2 even though it is definitely running. Here’s the log:

I tried restarting but no luck

Ian,

In PHD2, please look under “Tools” if the option “Enable server” has a check mark.

Kind regards,
Horia

I have a similar problem. The ‘enable server’ button is checked in PHD2 under Tools. I still cannot get SGP to connect properly to PHD2. What else might be the answer?
