Solve SABnzbd Error 10049: Quick Configuration Fix

SABnzbd may return error: (10049, "Can't assign requested address") if it's pointed to an outdated or incorrect IP address.

Why This Happens

The host IP saved in SABnzbd doesn't match your current system address. This typically occurs when routers change the assigned IP during a reboot or lease renewal.

Steps to Resolve It

Windows

• Launch CMD.EXE

• Run:

  "C:\Program Files\SABnzbd\SABnzbd-console.exe" --server 0.0.0.0:8080

• For 32-bit systems, substitute the path:

  "C:\Program Files (x86)\SABnzbd\SABnzbd-console.exe" --server 0.0.0.0:8080

Linux

Use the terminal to run:

sabnzbdplus --server 0.0.0.0:8080

Direct Edit Option

Open your sabnzbd.ini file and change the host field to 0.0.0.0.
