Hi guys - fairly new to this - installed and ran sabnzb fine for a day or so - turned my mac off, turned it back on the next morning, attempted to restart and got the following error
SABnzbd.py 0.7.17
SABnzbd needs a free tcp/ip port for its internal web server.
Port 8090 on localhost:8080 was tried , but it is not available.
Some other software uses the port or SABnzbd is already running.
Please restart SABnzbd with a different port number.
Open a Terminal window and type the line (example):
/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd --server localhost:8080:8091
If you get this error message again, please try a different number.
Program did not start!
I've tried lots of different ports but no joy! Can someone help?
just to say, after hours of reading literally hundreds of post - this worked for me
the way i got around this is i put in terminal
/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd --server 127.0.0.1:8081
instead of
/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd --server localhost:8081
believe me ive been trying for almost a month to get my dear program to work. it stopped when i updated and ive been trying to find something decent for mac but nothing worked.
so i figured since i cant get to the ini, reinstalling doesnt work, nothing works, ill do the local host ip in place of the word, and it worked.
a lot of people are having this problem, i hope it helps!
not quite sure exactly what it all means, but i am up and running!

Thanks
It would help if you would tell which ports and exact commands you have tried.
