error binding socket as server

[cabbs]

Me and a friend are attempting to run spring on his desktop computer, but it kept freezing and forcing a restart. Running it in windowed mode, we get this:

SHUTDOWN ERROR

Error binding socket as server

anyone got any ideas? this is driving me up the wall

Probably another process is still using socket for port 8452 (at least that's the only time I get that error).

Try to use a different host port (you can set it in the lobby IIRC) or figure out which process is bound to the socket...

We had to try a few different port numbers, but 9200 worked.

thanks :)
