Trouble with Shiny²

[Sturdge]

Shiny² keeps failing to initialise the GTS server; despite having both Ports 80 TCP and 53 UDP open as well as having an exception for Shiny² set on my firewall.

I don't have Skype or TeamVeiwer or anything else that even uses the internet open, yet it still won't work.

Any Suggestions?

Sorry if a thread like this already exists, but I couldn't find any using the search function.

It should print out an exception for initializing. Make sure you log to file, and then post the log here please.

02:32: The GTS server has failed to initialize! Are your ports blocked?

02:32: System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions

at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.DoBind(EndPoint endPointSnapshot, SocketAddress socketAddress)

at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Bind(EndPoint localEP)

at gts.Gts.Start()

This happens with Sendpkmn and HyperGTS too, I'm not too sure what's causing it.

Either you don't have permissions [run program as administrator] or something -is- using Port 80.

Try doing a "netstat -a" in Command Prompt to see if anything's using Port 80.

Fixed it after using "netstat -a". After a quick Google as to what uses the address 0.0.0.0 on port 80 I found out what was wrong. Turns out I forgot to switch Apache to Manual in my services and of course it uses port 80. Thanks Reign, and formless you were right, so thank you too.
