I finally got the installer to work! It seems that there was a problem with my Novacom. If anyone is still having this problem, right click on your "My Computer " link, go to Hardware>Device Manager. In there, if there is a yellow exclamation point on Novacom, click on it and re-install the driver.
Other people have found other ways to fix this problem, so this may not work for everyone. It seems that many different problems cause this same error message. Gotta go play with all my great downloaded apps now!

i also have the connection refused error no matter what i try
my services list claims that palm novacom is in fact running, but when i try to restart it, i get errors im running vista home premium as well, I'm trying a full install on an old XP machine now, ill post here if that works EDIT: the install on XP worked fully so I guess Vista was causing the problem :/ Last edited by nealbhasin; 07/17/2009 at 08:26 PM.

I use the Ubuntu Linux SDK.
I got the error in either case, whether I tried to run the test app from Eclipse or manually, through the command window. To correct the problem, I did a "Close", then "Power Off the Machine," in the emulator, then restarted the emulator (the equivalent of turning your Pre completely off and back on again, which does a shutown and a reboot of the Linux/webOS). |

Personally, I'm using a different (smarter?) way to restart Gnu/Linux webOS, by logging in the emulator and asking for a reboot (commands in bold, console output in italics): Code:
$ ssh -p 5522 root@localhost
root@localhost's password:
root@qemux86:/var/home/root# shutdown -r now
Broadcast message from root@qemux86
(/dev/pts/0) at 12:24 ...
The system is going down for reboot NOW!
root@qemux86:/var/home/root# Connection to localhost closed by remote host.
Connection to localhost closed.
Code:
$ novacom.exe -l 3633 7b3a2fecb5c526f08722bea6e78731c34aa05bc2 tcp emulator But looking further, I came to suspect the webOS novacomd daemon to be the reason for the "no device found" issue. It appeared that simply killing and restarting it did the trick too (notice the & to put the process in background): Code:
$ ssh -p 5522 root@localhost root@localhost's password: root@qemux86:/var/home/root# ps axuww | grep novacomd | egrep -v grep root 1313 4.8 0.2 1904 676 ? S<l 12:52 1:40 /sbin/novacomd --connect-ip 10.0.2.2 root@qemux86:/var/home/root# kill -1 1313 root@qemux86:/var/home/root# /sbin/novacomd --connect-ip 10.0.2.2 & root@qemux86:/var/home/root# [2009/8/2 13:27:32] novacomd version novacomd-59 starting...

The solution to my "device not found" problem, when installing to the emulator, seemed to be solved by not saving the state of the emulator prior to loading it before the install. ie the emulator had to go throught the complete bootup process before the install.

I also have a problem with disconnecting the Pre from my PC after using palm-install. I try the XP "Safe removal" but it never let's me disconnect.
In the end, I have to physically disconnect, and get warned by the Pre that this may damage data. Any ideas? |
