I followed the installation instructions at https://github.com/ideoforms/pylive.
Installed LiveOSC (http://livecontrol.q3f.org/ableton-liveapi/liveosc/) & enabled it as a Control Surface in Ableton Live. But since I did this done this quite some time ago, might have changed.

Same here. What version of Ableton Live do you use? It seems LiveOSC doesn't work with Live 9.

Ableton Live 9.5 Suite

I had the same problem and found that switching
remotehost = '127.0.0.1', remoteport=9000, localhost='127.0.0.1', localport=9001 to remotehost = '127.0.0.1', remoteport=9001, localhost='127.0.0.1', localport=9000
in LiveOSC2's LO2OSC.py file gets me past the server error 9904 error and gives connection to Ableton, i.e. I can call live.Set() and run functions like play() and stop().

However, functions that involve an OSC query such as scan() seem to fail with *** timed out waiting for server response. Not sure what to do from here, any help would be appreciated!

I'm running python 2.7.13 and Live 9 on MacOS Sierra.

Sorry but not sure what kind of black magic I did on my local machine to get pyLive running.
Probably easiest to strip out pyLive and replace it with a python OSC lib which works on your machine, and then just sends standard OSC to live.

I found something! So apparently LiveOSC's secure sockets setting needs to be commented out in order to work with Live 9.6+. While I still can't figure out why LiveOSC2 won't return messages to me, this fix gives me LiveOSC in Ableton Live's settings; then your script works fine as is. Although line 70 (set.save(config["songname"])) initially gave an error, so I needed to make a subdirectory named "save". 😃 Time to play around!
