smooky 0 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Hello,I'm trying to change the default port of emby server (3.5.2.0) on debian 9. I'm trying to do it in advanced options, but when i save and restart the server, emby is still on port 8096 on local. I don't understand this error; my friends did it without any problem. is ok but : (log is linked if it's correctly uploaded). log-emby.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastrmind11 717 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Can I ask why you want to do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 If it fails to authorize on your system then it will revert to default. So you need to make sure the server has permission to use the port that you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smooky 0 Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 How can I give permissions to emby ? I already checked if any service was using port 80 but there's no one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastrmind11 717 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Why are you trying to do this in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will vary per distro. Have you checked the documentation for your distro about how to do this? You may need to run as sudo in some cases.

smooky 0 Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 Why are you trying to do this in the first place? I'm trying to change the port because in some places i go, port 8096 is blocked and i cant use emby. This will vary per distro. Have you checked the documentation for your distro about how to do this? You may need to run as sudo in some cases. I'm under debian 9 as i said in first; though i hasn't seen any doc for changing the default port on debian and errors that we can have. do you have any link of topic for this ? (i already search for that but i didnt find any answer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I would take a look at this: https://serverfault.com/questions/112795/how-to-run-a-server-on-port-80-as-a-normal-user-on-linux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume by this you mean you're trying to access your server from outside your network? If so, just set your router port to something else and map that port to your internal 8096. Unless I'm totally missing what you're trying to describe, there is almost never a reason to change your emby server default ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
