Can't bind to free port

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.

Code: Select all

lsof -ti :8080 | xargs kill -9
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? ??? ??? ??? ???
