Issue with KDB install

Community Support

Hi guys,

I have installed kdb+ (64 bit) from Anaconda. I got the confirmation email and set QHOME to the path containing kc.lic, q.k and l64.

However, when I try to start q I get

KDB+ 3.6 2018.12.24 Copyright (C) 1993-2018 Kx Systems

'2019.04.29T09:49:37.666 couldn’t connect to license daemon – exiting

My internet connection works properly.

Any idea?

Thank you.

That’s what I get in the tube :)
Are you possibly running your kdb in a VM and are you sure the VM is connected to your laptop’s wifi?

I have a RHEL7 VM and unless I tell it something like this it will not wifi:

dhclient -r && dhclient

Then it must be sure the internet works at the VM before kdb was mounted.

Hi JW, thanks for the reply.

I’m not using any VM. I just installed kdb+ with conda on my local machine (I have Ubuntu 16.04).

I tried to ping www.kx.com getting

ISSUE SOLVED:

the problem was that the $http_proxy environment variable was set.

After unsetting it, the program works normally.

Thanks
