Osirix client with Orthanc 0.9.1 server does not work for me

Hi there,

I am running Orthanc 0.9.1 and Osirix 5.8.2 on same Mac 10.8.

In Osirix I have configured Orthanc as a Node.
In Orthanc I have added Osirix client under DicomModalities with
"hostname" : ["HOME", "192.168.178.43", 11112]

the IP is my local one and in Osirix I named the AET = HOME
I have also tried 127.0.0.1 as IP but makes no difference

When I try to query Orthanc from Osirix I see the following error on the Orthanc shell:

E0707 01:13:52.674654 216453120 main.cpp:179] Unknown remote DICOM modality AET: "HOME"
E0707 01:13:52.674691 216453120 CommandDispatcher.cpp:776] Find requests are disallowed for the AET "HOME"
E0707 01:13:52.674710 216453120 CommandDispatcher.cpp:852] DIMSE failure (aborting association): DIMSE Caller passed in an illegal association

Any ideas what I am doing wrong here?
Why do I have to add the client at all under DicomModalities in Orthanc?

thanks in advance
Torsten

Quick question:
Under the Query/Retrieve in Orthanc Explorer, does “hostname” appear as a Dicom Server?

no, selectbox is empty there.
have also tried another name than "hostname" but same result

This possibly means that your Orthanc instance is not reading configuration.json. I have encountered this problem a few times.

Unfortunately, I have very little knowledge about OS X - I only know Windows.

The method in Windows is either to restart the Orthanc service or to use the command line:
C:\Orthanc\Orthanc.0.9.1-Release.exe ./configuration.json

Yes, that was it!

I have now started explicitly and given Configuration.json as param and thats working
./Orthanc ./Configuration.json

thanks for your help!
