Although i’m stuck on another dead-end, There’s a error that says that i don’t have the HLL module. What is that?

I have visual studio.

I tried to install HLL with pip and it didn’t worked. the error also said “HyperLogLog” so i installed that and i REtried using the python dbcreate.py command with no result.

again, if you have visual studio already, you will need build tools.

i probably shouldn’t have overlooked this in my tutorial but i was under the assumption that no one needed build tools because (for me) HLL wouldn’t compile without Visual Studio so i assumed it was all that anyone needed. sorry about that.

It requires Visual C++ 14, i have Visual Studio Community.

Update: After 20 minutes of installing Visual C++ i was FINALLY able to install HLL.

And i’m stuck in here.

OSError: [Errno 10048] error while attempting to bind on address ('0.0.0.0', 443): only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted

Connecting will only result 80072efd

It seems that it wants to use the ip “0.0.0.0”, which makes no sense for me at all.

So i have to port forward everything?

try installing Windows Live Messenger 2009 fresh from the MSI and install the Windows Live Communications Platform. if already done then check HOSTS.

127.0.0.1 m1.escargot.log1p.xyz
127.0.0.1 messenger.hotmail.com
127.0.0.1 login.live.com
127.0.0.1 gateway.messenger.hotmail.com
127.0.0.1 byrdr.omega.contacts.msn.com
127.0.0.1 config.messenger.msn.com
127.0.0.1 tkrdr.storage.msn.com
127.0.0.1 ows.messenger.msn.com
127.0.0.1 rsi.hotmail.co

run python run_all.py?

also 0.0.0.0 is like localhost and 127.0.0.1

It actually mentions 127.0.0.1 2 times and 0.0.0.0 2 times.

but

I now get error code 80048820. Although most people say that it’s because TLS wasn’t enabled (since it’s the same error code as using 8.x on Windows XP without the posready updates)

alright, try python dev again.

run_all.py says that there’s 2 ips that has 0.0.0.0,

dev says that ALL ips have 0.0.0.0,

ok, then connect.

ok, looking at it, it mentions that it wants 443 but it can’t use it because a program is already using it.

if you have VMware Workstation/Player, terminate vmware-hostd.exe. if you have any web server software, disable it.

vmware-hostd.exe was open. So i closed it and.

It now has error code 80048820.
