Hi Everyone,


I am using python osc for connecting to a sensor, I want to connect to the sensor for 10 minutes receive the messages and close the server. The following is the code I have for doing job:

from pythonosc import udp_client
from pythonosc import osc_message_builder
from pythonosc import dispatcher
import socket, threading, time
from pythonosc import osc_server
import time

tstart=time.time();
# Change this to the NGIMU IP address
send_address = '192.100.1.1', 9000


client =udp_client.SimpleUDPClient('192.100.1.1', 9000)

# msg=osc_message_builder.OscMessageBuilder()
# msg=msg.build()
print(str(socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())))

#receive_address='192.100.16.2', 8000
dispatcher = dispatcher.Dispatcher()

server = osc_server.ThreadingOSCUDPServer(('192.100.16.2', 8001),dispatcher)
#server.setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
print("Serving on {}".format(server.server_address))

server.server_activate()
#server.server_close()

tnow= time.time();
tdiff= tnow-tstart
while(tdiff*1000<10):
    tnow= time.time();
    tdiff= tnow-tstart;
    print(tdiff)
    if(tdiff*1000>10):
       server.server_close()

I am getting the following error:

Error:

    self.socket.bind(self.server_address)

OSError: [WinError 10048] Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted

How do I solve this error?
