OpenVPN: Can't assign requested address

· apple, errors, linux, networking, software

For no clear reason, OpenVPN on Mac with Tunnelblick (any version, had this problem for a few years already) results in these kind of error messages (and refuses to connect):

2013-02-05 17:44:31 write UDPv4: Can't assign requested address (code=49)
2013-02-05 17:44:33 write UDPv4: Can't assign requested address (code=49)

This seems to appear more often when swapping WiFi/IP range (after my Mac goes into sleep). But also happens when connecting to the same WiFi. It doesn’t change anything whether I disconnect OpenVPN before putting the Mac to sleep.

Office 2010: cannot verify the license for this product

· errors, software, windows

Due to continuous Access errors, I decided to reinstall Office Professional 2010 (64 bit).

As I couldn’t find the original CD key I installed it with, I used another one from another installation. So far so good, installation went fine, etc.

Once I started any Office app, it popped up this error: “Microsoft Office professional plus 2010 cannot verify the license. blablabla useless crap check control panel”

I’ve tried:

  • Reenter CD key (via setup)
  • Repair Office
  • Install every single item I could select during the install
  • Remove office + reinstall office
  • Removed CD key with this
  • Reboot over a zillion times
  • Cursed
None of this worked.

However, this seems to fix it for me:

Proximus fraud email address

· errors, misc

In case, like me, you suddenly can’t make any outgoing phone calls, or send any text messages, and your data connection is cut off.

And yes, this includes calling the Proximus helpdesk (6000)… ps: WELL DONE PROXIMUS. NICE.

The message I heard when trying to make an outgoing phone call as along the lines of “You currently cannot make any outgoing calls. Click 1 for additional details.” 1 “Due to technical issues we cannot help you any further” disconnected…
