Invalid address when launching SABnzbd

Post by DForce29 »

i am getting this error when launching the program
SABnzbd.exe 0.6.8



SABnzbd needs a valid host address for its internal web server.
You have specified an invalid address.
Safe values are localhost and 0.0.0.0

Please restart SABnzbd with a proper host address.

Press Startkey+R and type the line (example):
"D:\Program Files (x86)\SABnzbd\SABnzbd.exe" --server localhost:8080


Program did not start!
i have tried the thing that the error suggested and it did not work, i have tried reinstalling and no luck, i have added it to my anti-virus exclusion list as well.

Lookup "SABnzbd - Safe Mode" in the Windows Start Menu.
It will start SABnzbd with (hopefully) safe values.
