ends up with correct error message. > If there exists already code that detects a non-working pipe in lyxclient, > could that also be used at startup? please note, that the situation is more complicated, because not only one directory can be used for pipes. for example this is my current lyxclient startup log: lyxclient: Could not connect to socket /tmp/lyx_tmpdir11456VPmAHc/lyxsocket: Connection refused lyxclient: Could not connect to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir11456VPmAHc/lyxsocket lyxclient: Could not connect to socket /tmp/lyx_tmpdir12525pT3YKq/lyxsocket: Connection refused lyxclient: Could not connect to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir12525pT3YKq/lyxsocket lyxclient: Could not connect to socket /tmp/lyx_tmpdir14678nj12Zn/lyxsocket: Connection refused lyxclient: Could not connect to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir14678nj12Zn/lyxsocket lyxclient: Could not connect to socket /tmp/lyx_tmpdir14798vpV6XT/lyxsocket: Connection refused lyxclient: Could not connect to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir14798vpV6XT/lyxsocket lyxclient: Could not connect to socket /tmp/lyx_tmpdir19681rMXMd/lyxsocket: Connection refused lyxclient: Could not connect to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir19681rMXMd/lyxsocket lyxclient: Connected to /tmp/lyx_tmpdir20120R6Rh4d/lyxsocket pavel
