: Torchat won't work after first use
: sp0rk August 24, 2013, 04:12:13 AM

Hey,
I'm having the exact same issue as this person has been having: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1996287

"Torchat: Port already in use
 Something, probably another TorChat instance, is already listening at 127.0.0.1:11009. You must create another profile using different ports to be able to start TorChat a second time."

I've removed vidalia,provoxy and tor from running at startup( I think), I've created scripts to turn tor off and on manually etc. but still nothing.
The process is still running, right alongside "tor.sh" in my processes and I can't end them without them re-appearing.

Why not try changing the port as it says then working from there to see if the problem still persists.

Thanks for the advice but I managed to get it fixed on my own. Nothing a few scripts couldn't fix :)
