GUI Wont Open

[funkcanna]

Hi All,

I have been having a problem lately where the GUI doesnt open and I get a Network Error (tcp_error) in Firefox and Chrome, however it turns out the downloads still work - strange.

This happens whether I open SAB from the exe or browse to http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/.  when I do this I get the Network error but also the URL resolves to http://www.localhost.com/sabnzbd which seems odd to me.

I have recently installed Spyware S&D and Ad-Aware - are there any known conflicts?  I cannot see any options in either relating to SAB.

Any help will be appreciated.

Try:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/

http://[::1]:8080/

Hi Sander

With both of these links I get Request Error (invalid_request)

No know conflicts, but that doesn't mean there aren't any.
We cannot test everything.
In your case run SABnzbd-console.exe which will show you on which IP and port it listens.
An alternative would be to start SABnzbd like this:
Windows-Key R
"c:\program files\SABnzbd\SABnzbd.exe" --server 0.0.0.0:8080
Enter

Then try both localhost and the real IP of your system.

Hi, I ran the console but not sure what I am looking for however it states at the end:

2010-12-30 12:56:03,132::INFO::[misc:584] Lauching browser with http://localhost
:8100/sabnzbd

So its pointing to 8100 is that correct?

When I do the command from Run, a tab opens in Firefox and again just resolves to www.localhost.com/sabnzbd

Thanks for your help guys.

Hi, I have fixed this.  It turns out that Firefox was going through a proxy for localhost.  Changed it to have no proxy for localhost and its now working fine

Thanks again
