Hey,
I just downloaded Sabnzbd+ for Mac and it all worked great in the beginning.
After that I played some world of warcraft and tried to start sabnzbd+ again, it gave me an error about the port being used. I later found out that it was probably the Blizzard Background Downloader that was apparantly still running.
Sabnzbd+ gave me the tip(?) to open a terminal and type the adress of a file with a different port-number behind it. The terminal gave an error like "terminal logging disabled" and didn't appear to do anything.
Now Sabnzbd+ will show up in the dock but it won't automatically open my browser window or do anything else. Typing http://localhost:8080/nzbd etc. in my address bar also does nothing. Probably because I changed the port and don't know which one. Reinstalling the program didn't solve anything.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this program? Thanks a lot in advance!

Re: Sabnzbd+ broken after Terminal port change
Try http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/
If that doesn't work, you need to open you sabnzbd.ini and change the port to something other than 8080. Also please note closing your browser window does not shutdown sabnzbd, it will still be running in the background so you should use a bookmark to access it again.

Hi Tyaculo,
I think your 8080 port is used by your Background Downloader.
To resolve :
- Close SABnzbd : CTRL+click on the SABnzbd Dock Icon and select Close.
- Edit your ini file to change your port : launch Terminal and type :
- Change in this file port = 8080 by port = 8081 and save the file
- Start SABnzbd
It should work
PS : if your want to see the log :

Re: Sabnzbd+ broken after Terminal port change
Thanks a million guys!
I don't know where it all went wrong, but after changing the port and clearing some data in the .ini file (like username, passwords and server) it all works perfectly again.
Thank you very much for the quick and accurate responses.
