Post Calibre Portable, Cannot start server

Quote:
calibre, version 5.34.0
ERROR: Failed to start Content server: Could not start the Content server. Error:

No socket could be created -- (('192.168.1.70', 8081): [WinError 10013] An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions)
from the server logs

Failed to bind to 0.0.0.0 with error: No socket could be created -- (('0.0.0.0', 8081): [WinError 10013] An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions). Trying to bind to the default interface: 192.168.1.70 instead
Code:
 netstat -aon|findstr "8081"
shows no results

Any other suggestions as what could be going wrong?
The port is open, ran as administrator, didn't work. It worked in the past, but not now.

your antivirus/firewall/security program is preventing calibre from opening the port. Disable/add exceptions to those programs and you will be fine.

I had checked the firewall ...etc.
I suspected it was a windows issue, so I restarted the computer, and it started working fine. I don't know if there's a way for a port to be open even after the application has closed.

Anyway for future internet visitors, try restarting your computer once !
