Couldn't start webserver on port 8088 and Homebrew 2.0

[Anil Wadghule]

Hi,

I have recently upgraded Homebrew to 2.0 on Mac. I did recompile Janus after upgrading Homebrew.

But I have started getting following error.

[FATAL] [transports/janus_http.c:janus_http_init:686] Couldn't start webserver on port 8088...

Even if I use sudo to run the janus, I get above error. Seems weird.

Did anyone face this issue? How did you resolve?

Not specific to Janus, this problem is usually caused by one of two problems:

• The port that you tell it to listen on is already in use
  
• The IP address on which you tell it to listen is not one assigned to any interface

If you're on Linux, first do "sudo netstat -alnp | grep 8088" to find out what process is listening on that port. If none, then ensure that the specified listening IP address is correct for one of your interfaces.

Hi Darrel,

Thanks for quick reply. I did check whether there was something running on port 8088.

Second I am on Mac, and I was able to use 8088 before Homebrew update. I originally thought it’s a permission issue, so I ran janus binary as sudo. 

But still issue exists. Wondering what’s wrong!

Thanks,

Also I meant to say Homebrew 1.2.0 and not 2.0 (as wrongly I put in email subject)

There was this thread addressing similar issue:

Maybe to try on latest janus?

Thanks Alessandro, Mirko, Derrel

I was able to solve the problem by using latest Janus source code. It works fine now.
