Can't bind to free port
Posted: November 28th, 2018, 5:38 pm
I'm running a mac as server and usually got SABnzbd running on port 8080. I havn't touched the configuration of this or any other connected service recently. However, all of the sudden (after a reboot) it stopped binding to the port and fails to start up. I have looked up if anything else is bound to the port but no, nothing is reported by the system.
and so on...
Even so going to the server at localhost:8080 gives me the standard Apache page; "It works!". I really have zero ideas on what is going on here. I can bind to other ports so indeed the evidence points at SOMETHING running. Also did reboots to no avail. Any suggestions on how to continue the search?
