Disconnected
KittyTigerWolf opened this issue · comments
Normal installation on Mac OS X Mojave
Server seems to run fine in the console except one error message:
[Error] Failed to start stats server: listen EADDRINUSE: address already in use :::88
When I try to join the server in agar.io though, a "Disconnected" text comes up.
I have tried different ports as well as just localhost, but none of them work.
Help would be appreciated.
this port is already used
How do I fix this problem then, so that I can connect. Changing the port doesn't help, the error goes away, yes, but I still can't connect to it.
Have you tried 127.0.0.1:port instead of localhost:port?
Also, are there any errors in the developer console? (f12)
Find out which service is running on your specific port and terminate it, if you don't need it.
lsof -i :port
In your case, its the stats server running at 88 which is colliding with some other application you are running on your machine.
@KittyTigerWolf Are you connecting to port 88
?
kill $(lsof -i:88)
Note: you should change to another unused port, as port 88 is used by kerberos
Guys 88 is the stat port, its a system reserved port and therefore requires root permits. 8080 is the server port, so unless you're using the stats for something, you don't really need it.
