Turns out my issue was not port related. I had an older screen saver (worldclock.pm) that was causing the server to crash. Seems like the worldclock screen save will not work with 6.5.x -- gages gages's Profile:

I got the slimserver working with the revised settings in McAfee. I made the recommended browser link to deal with the incorrect address on startup. I now have what seems a solid stable program running. I think it is now safe to order the squeezebox. I really appreciate the many people who

Thanks Ceejay. I finally have slimserver working stable. I turned off McAfee virus scan. I don't know how to set it up to skip certain files as recommended. If anyone knows how to do this in mcAfee Total Protection 2007 please let me know because I don't want to leave it off for long. Is there

When you say it crashes, what exactly are you referring to? Is slimserver itself stopping? If so please have a look in the Windows Event Viewer (via control panel / admin tools) to see if there are any messages there. Or is it the browser that's locking up? If so, did you by any chance install

When you say it crashes, what exactly are you referring to? Slimserver stops, lights go out on the slim icon on the bottom of the screen and the browser stops displaying info. Other IE pages will continue to work fine so it does not appear to be an IE issue Is slimserver itself stopping? If so

I had the same problem, which was a conflict over the use of the port. The reply below cured it (or at least partially, since after I removed the conflict I discovered that 6.5 is extremely unstable! Try 6.3. http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=158862postcount=10 -- David Lawrence

Inniswhe, It looks like some other application is already using port 9000 and so your browser can't connect to it as it is not a http based app so you get protocol errors. You can find out the offending app by using netstat. Since slimserver will find out on startup it can't use 9000, IIRC

Installing 6.5.1 will not stop the port conflict which is stopping you getting at the slimserver web page. The browser trying to open the app (not slimserver) which has taken over port 9000 - that is why there is no change after installing 6.5.1 netstat is useful to find what is using port 9000

I checked the file as recommended by BPA. The port was 9080. I opened the program and put the correct 9080 port number in and voila, there is the interface back again. Now every 10seconds something is happening but I am not sure what. There is a program trying to access the internet or something

Thanks Mark for the tip on the refresh click. It was the start navigation click , I changed to None and that solved that problem. I am still manually adjusting the browser address to port 9080 to see slimserver on start-up but it is extremely unstable. It crashes every few actions taken like
