Cannot bind to socket
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
There are two common reasons that you can't bind to a socket: the port is
|
||||
already in use, or you don't have permission.
|
||||
As an example, you can see what happens when I try to start a Python
|
||||
SimpleHTTPServer on a port that is already in use::
|
||||
|
||||
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080
|
||||
...
|
||||
socket.error: [Errno 98] Address already in use
|
||||
|
||||
Here's an example of what happens when I try to bind to a privileged port
|
||||
without proper permissions (in Linux, ports < 1024 are privileged)::
|
||||
|
||||
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 80
|
||||
...
|
||||
socket.error: [Errno 13] Permission denied
|
||||
|
||||
Permission denied reading to / writing from disk
|
||||
