problem starting up

Post by zambonijones »

I have recently started having problems accessing SABnzbd.  I get an error telling me that I need to set my port to a higher number, but as the program does not start--it simply gives me a warning message opened in Firefox--I can't figure out a way to change it.  If it can't open, how the hell am I supposed to fix it?

I tried deleting the application and re-installing, but it's a Mac so we all know how well applications actually get deleted..... Does anyone have any advice?  What the hell happened?  What changed?  It was working fine a week ago.  PS.  Sorry I'm not new to this, but my understanding of the mechanics of it is very limited.

Open a terminal, go into the directory that contains SABnzbd.py, and run

Code: Select all

./SABnzbd.py -s 127.0.0.1:8888
