Sab fails to initialize - IOError

Post by silverstone »

Hi,
Sab has been running great until tonight. The engine keeps shutting down:

2016-06-10 23:32:20,102::INFO::[_cplogging:216] [10/Jun/2016:23:32:20] ENGINE Started monitor thread '_TimeoutMonitor'.
2016-06-10 23:33:10,316::ERROR::[_cplogging:216] [10/Jun/2016:23:33:10] ENGINE Error in 'start' listener <bound method ServerAdapter.start of <cherrypy.process.servers.ServerAdapter object at 0x0304D4D0>>
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "cherrypy\process\wspbus.pyo", line 205, in publish
File "cherrypy\process\servers.pyo", line 177, in start
File "cherrypy\process\servers.pyo", line 233, in wait
File "cherrypy\process\servers.pyo", line 459, in wait_for_occupied_port
IOError: Port 8080 not bound on '127.0.0.1'

From another post with the same problem suggested to try starting it with the SABnzbd-console.exe. It worked as it should, so I tried changing the port number and then starting it the normal way a couple of times but it still comes back with the IOError. Any suggestions on ow to fix this?

Did you reboot your system yet?
Some process is using the same port as SABnzbd wants to use.

Reboot didn't help. It really doesn't make since why the SABnzbd-console.exe will work but not SABnzbd.exe. What's the difference?
Come to think of it, I just upgraded. I'm going to rollback to an older version and see if that fixes it.
In the meantime, do you know of something else I could try?

There's no difference in behaviour between SABnzbd.exe and SABnzbd-console.exe
except that the latter produces visible log output.

I tried rolling back to v1.0 but the same error is coming up. This is totally baffling.
I guess the only solution at this point is to reimage the drive and setup Sab from scratch.
It's going to be a long night.

UPDATE: Just finished reimaging the drive and setting up Sab.
Everything is working as it should and hopefully that issue was just a fluke.
