What happens when you type : http://192.168.1.109:8081/sabnzbd/

As when your IP of PC is : 192.168.1.109 , and you are really running sabnzbd+ op port 8081 .. it should all work
When I do that I'm getting an 'Unable to Connect' error (Firefox) and a 'Cannot display the webpage' message (IE)

Is it worth trying to install/reinstall this?

i have the same prob get message


SABnzbd needs a free tcp/ip port for its internal web server.
Port 8081 on localhost was tried , but it is not available.
Some other software uses the port or SABnzbd is already running.

Please restart SABnzbd with a different port number.

Press Startkey+R and type the line (example):
    "C:\Program Files\SABnzbd\SABnzbd.exe" --server localhost:8082

worked properly before i am new with Sab can someone help?
Dont know fe what is stratkey

Thnx in advance Diver

Try another port number.
Check if your virus scanner or firewall isn't blocking SABnzbd.

i don't know if this helps..but i had this issue and resolved it  ;D
i had another application that was using port 8080 (serv-U), so when i installed sabnzbd RC3, it automatically took port 8081...but web access never worked.
so i uninstalled them booth then installed sabnzbd alone...and its working perfectly on 8080...

from lan, i use
http://192.168.2.2:8080/sabnzbd/        or    https://192.168.2.2:9090/sabnzbd/ 

from internet i had to change the ports and conf my home router to forward the ports [ 443 and 8080 ] to port 9090, because our work firewall blocks 9090.

https://mydomainname.com:443/sabnzbd/  or    https://mydomainname.com:8080/sabnzbd/ 


BTW normally you can use any port including 8081...but I'm not sure whats going on here  ???
