Strange, I have never seen this. But did you remove everything about
gnuserv from your startup files (.emacs etc)? If you use the EmacsW32
setup then this starts Emacs and gnuserv automatically for you when you
click a file for example. If you have not removed everything about
gnuserv, could you please try that?

(I guess you downloaded Emacs-22 CvsP060608-EmacsW32-1.03.exe?)

 

You're right, I downloaded Emacs-22 CvsP060608-EmacsW32-1.03.exe but note that

on http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/EmacsW32.html the link reads Emacs-22-CvsP060314-EmacsW32-1.00.exe.

 

Previously, I still had gnuserv in my .emacs file. Now I removed gnuserve from .emacs and if

I type "gnuclientw filename.txt" then emacs opens but does not load any file (now even if it's the

first file to open).

Starting emacs (in whichever way) now almost immediately leads to the following message:

 

"Started Emacs and tried to connect during 60 seconds. Connection still fails. Are you sure gnuserve.exe

is started by Emacs? WSAGetLastError=10061."

 

Maybe there is a problem with my setup, but I simply used the install wizard until finish (and I'm really

working with the new version now). Is there anything I might have forgotten in the setup?
