Having issues getting Lich/Profanity functional on OSX

[Varist]

So after saving a login profile for wizard for my character in lich I put in...

ruby ./lich/lich.rbw --login Varist --without-frontend --detachable-client=8000

And then opening another terminal via command N and I try to open profanity and get...

iMac:~ ME$ ruby ./lich/profanity.rb --port=8000
./lich/profanity.rb:1578:in `initialize': Connection refused - connect(2) for "127.0.0.1" port 8000 (Errno::ECONNREFUSED)
from ./lich/profanity.rb:1578:in `open'
from ./lich/profanity.rb:1578:in `<main>'

The above was done using the profanity instructions on the wiki. I'm hoping there is some simple syntax difference or other adjustment I need to make in order to make this work on OSX since I realize the instructions are for Linux. Anyone have any advice?

Below I've got the information from the lich diagnostics on the wiki, just to show a general setup. Oh and its 4.6.52 for the lich file (per the lich file itself).

Well after a lot of playing around with this I've got profanity to launch (it ended up needing a stormfront quick entry save, not a wizard one). But... when it loads all I get is...

No game data. I realize this is a long shot at this point but anyone have any ideas on why it isn't fully connected to the game? I also did some playing around with avalon and get roughly the same outcome. It loads 'avalon' fine, but doesn't fully connect. So I figure its something with my lich setup.

I know the Officials are considered no bueno(usually rightly so), but if you go there and post in /Help for Players ---> /Unofficial FrontEnds and Third-party Software, Doug will wander by eventually and probably clear it up for ya.

Try this command in terminal:

sudo ruby lich/lich.rbw --gemstone --avalon

Then open Avalon and login once terminal says "Waiting for the client to connect..."

Anything in the lich debug file? Should be in wherever your lich dir is /temp/debug-<timestamp>.log

[Varist]

When I try to login that way with Avalon I end up in the same state. I get the screen for Avalon (including timer and wound windows) to open but it doesn't give me any game data. Though lich seems to be doing its part....

Pretending to be gs3.simutronics.net
Listening on port 4900
Waiting for the client to connect...
Connection with the local game client is open.

For the debug when I tried to log in with profanity I get...
