SABnzbd Forums

Running Lion and upgraded to 0.7.8 and SAB now quits on launch. Menu bar icon appears and disappears almost immediately. Tried restarts and reinstalls but no luck. Have very recently installed SickB and CouchP so the new version may not be a cause just a coincidence.

Here is the part of the log I think is relevant;

2013-01-06 13:01:17,219::INFO::[__init__:1592] Leaving SABnzbd

Any help would be appreciated.

It says " 0.0.0.0:8080" and then " Can't assign requested address".

So I would try another address (start with 127.0.0.1) and/or another port (8765 for example).
You can change those values via the commandline or via the file sabnzbd.ini (after stopping SABnzbd). However, I don't know how to do that on OSX. Maybe you can even (right) click on the SAB-symbol and start in a safe mode?

Thanks for your help. Since posting I've managed to get a work around. I tried re=installing 0.7.7 but had the same problem, I deleted the cache restarted again etc but after I tried 0.7.8 again it now launched. After restarting SAB the problem came back. I repeated the process of installing 0.7.7 (crashed again) and then going back to 0.7.8 and it worked again.

I checked the host setting and it is blank, a setting I've been using for a while as I access from other computers and remotely. So it seems there is something about my set up and/or this build that won't play well get together.

In 0.7.8 a potential IPv6 bug was fixed that could trigger on some systems.
Maybe yours is such a system.

I have recently started to play around with IPv6 settings, so that looks like you've found the cause.
