Wrong ports won't connect

Post by murlocs »

While configuring SABnzbd on my Windows machine here, I changed the Web Server port and HTTP port from the default to something else, and now SABnzbd will start up, but will not connect. Any help is appreciated.

Find and open the file sabnzbd.ini (see http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/faq#toc18 for the location), and find the first occurence of the word 'port'. The number is the port on which SAB is running.

Attention: only when SAB is not running, you can change the port number in the ini file. Then start SAB, and it is running on that port.
