Maybe you can address it by reconfiguring the port.
For example, 1) Change the server port to 9001 (See here); 2) Restart the environment; 3) Initialize the Client with the new port, and connect to the game.

@zfw1226 , I have tried to change the port and restart the environment, but it still cnanot connect. Besides, can you tell me how to initialize the client with new port? thanks~

zfw1226 commented

The example code is follwoing:
import unrealcv
ip = '127.0.0.1'
port = 9001
client = unrealcv.Client((ip, port))
Note that the port number of server and client should be consistent.

This may help someone... running Windows with an Ubuntu on WSL2, I always got connection refused from localhost or 127.0.0.1.

So what helped me was this comment on a WSL2 issue regarding not being able to access the Windows host localhost from the WSL2 container.

After running those commands and enabling avahi, now I'm able to access the UnrealCV server using a .local hostname.
