Run either the prpcd.py or poserpythonreceiver.py, not both. I should make this clear on my web page. Running both would make the system very sluggish and unpredictable. I thought I had stuff setup so you couldn't run two versions at the same time. I'll check into that. They are basically the same server daemon. The poserpythonreceiver.py script has the 'multi-tasking' option disabled. Since you need this option enabled to run the autoconform.py script, you should run prpcd.py The warning message you got was meant to tell you to close all other python scripts before closing prpcd.py. If you had closed poserpythonreceiver first, it probably would have shutdown gracefully. I'll try and make that message clearer in the future. Thanks for the clear and detailed feedback. It takes alot of the guesswork out of replying and debugging.
