Unable to start sabnzbd

Post by uglistix »

I've been using Sabnzbd for several years and never had any problems, However today I found that I was unable to start sab. I'm running it on Windows Server 2012R2 and if I run it from the console I see an IOError whilst trying to bind to port 8080? The message says the port is in use, yet if I run resmon at the same time i don't see anything listening on 8080 - and in fact when I start trying running sabnzbd I can see it listed on port 8080? I've tried starting with different ports - but get the same error everytime. Any ideas?

Code: Select all

And what does "ipconfig" show you as the IP address of the Windows machine?

It shows 192.168.1.131 as the IPv4 address.

Hmmm - I just got it to start with this:

Code: Select all

SABnzbd-console.exe --server 0.0.0.0:8080
I'm not sure why that works, but using the local server IP (192.168.1.131) doesn't?
