SABnzbd+ keeps shutting down on startup

[gers1978]

Whenever I set the host to 0.0.0.0 or localhost, SAB shuts down as soon it opens. I've tried changing the port to something unusual, same problem. The log says:

Starting web-interface on 127.0.0.1:12122
2013-10-28 18:03:02,571::ERROR::[SABnzbd:1498] Failed to start web-interface:

If I change the port to 127.0.0.1, SAB works fine, but then I can't use my VPN's port forwarding feature to access SAB from outside my network for some reason

Mac OS X 10.9 (although the problem existed on OS X 10.8.x as well)

Thanks

You should either use 0.0.0.0 or the true local IP address of your system.
Normally 0.0.0.0 should work, but on some systems SABnzbd cannot find out what the local IP is.
Tell your router to assign a reserved IP address to your system and then use that in SABnzbd.
