Startup and ports
Murage won't open, never gets ready, or reports that every port is busy. Where to find the logs and what to try next.
Murage won't get ready
You see
The background server didn't come up in timeDo this
This usually means a slow start, not a conflict.
- Quit Murage completely.
- Open it again and give it a moment.
You see
Every port answered from another programDo this
The likely cause is a second copy of Murage already running, or another program using ports 8799 to 28799.
- Quit every copy of Murage. Check the menu bar or system tray too.
- Quit the other program if you know which one it is.
- Open Murage again.
You see
It still won't startDo this
Download the latest version from the download page and install it over your current copy. Your bots, conversations and settings are kept in a separate folder and aren't removed.
