How to Resolve SABnzbd 10049 Address Binding Issue

If SABnzbd shows (10049, "Can't assign requested address"), it's usually due to a host setting mismatch.

What's Going On

This issue surfaces when SABnzbd is configured with an IP address that has been reassigned by your router or no longer exists.

Windows Fix

1. Open CMD.EXE

2. Enter the appropriate command:

   "C:\Program Files\SABnzbd\SABnzbd-console.exe" --server 0.0.0.0:8080

3. For 32-bit setups:

   "C:\Program Files (x86)\SABnzbd\SABnzbd-console.exe" --server 0.0.0.0:8080

Linux Fix

Run:

sabnzbdplus --server 0.0.0.0:8080

Direct File Edit

Go to your sabnzbd.ini configuration file and set the host to 0.0.0.0 to allow all IPs.
