I have just started receiving the following message when trying to open SABnzbd . The message is as follows
It looks like the webpage at http://127.0.0.1:556/sabnzbd/ might be having issues, or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
ERR_UNSAFE_PORT

Can anyone help me with this please.

Hi and welcome to the forum. :)

556 is a rather odd port to use. What's wrong with using a port in the 8000's?

Nothing just trying random things to get working will head for the 8000. Except now I can't get in at all - bugger bugger bum - Looking for a genius to unlock my dilemma now.

Thanks

You'll probably need to manually edit the SABnzbd configuration file you're using. Find the key-value pair showing your current 556 port and change it. ;)

That depends: what operating system are you using?

How did you install SABnzbd?

ERR_UNSAFE_PORT is a Chrome / Chromium / MS Edge warning/error, protecting you against strange URLs, in this case: strange port, considered UNSAFE by Chrome.

You can tell Chrome to do it anyway, but easier to put SABnzbd on 8080 again. Which you did, and which worked. Good!

I just edited it to Chrome / Chromium / MS Edge. Can't test Firefox for you. Which browser do you?

Good old MS IE does accept that port. So, can you use that?

On which OS is your SABnzbd running?
