Mac unable to connect to localhost

Hello,

I have been running Emby on my Mac (currently: macOS Big Sur version 11.2.2) for almost a year without any incidents.

I rebooted my computer today and now am unable to connect. 

I launch the Emby application and the icon appears in the top toolbar. Normally a couple minutes later Safari would launch and I would see the libraries etc. but now nothing happens. 

Whether I open a browser and navigate to the local host or click on the icon and choose any option: "Browse Library", "Configure Emby", "Emby Premier" I immediately receive a page that says:

"Safari Can't Connect to the Server"

Safari can't open the page "localhost:8096/web/index.html" because Safari can't connect to the server "localhost".

I am not super technical but this leads me to believe even though the icon makes it seem the server\service has started it actually has not. 

I have chose the option to restart
I have rebooted my computer.
I have uninstalled Emby and re-downloaded the latest version and re-installed.

I'm stuck and have no idea what steps to take next. Unsure where to get additional data (Error Logs etc.)

Any and all help is appreciated.

Thank you,

@LukeSame problem here.

"Is any emby server log file generated under /Users/{user}/.config/emby-server/logs ?"

Yes there are. I am not sure if I should post them here as I don't know what info it contains.

Emby version downloaded today and installed embyserver-osx-x64-4.5.4.0

Please advise.
