I get an error every time I try to start this puppy up. Done all the standard stuff - reinstalled, uninstall-reboot-reinstall, everything I can think of. Was working fine for months (or longer) until this morning. Here's the error from the log:


Exception in thread HTTPServer Thread-9:
Traceback (most recent call last):

You filled in an incorrect host address in Config->General.
(Or you used the IP address and your router assigned a different one).
Assuming Windows, use the Start menu to find "SABnzbd - Safe mode" and start that.

Thanks - the safe mode start got it. Looks like my router went stupid on me and I had to reset all the assigned IPs. Thanks again!

It's better to use 0.0.0.0 if you want external access and localhost if not.
