Pygmy failure to start#

Address already in use when trying to start pygmy. This is a known error! Most of the time it means that there is already something running on port 80. You can find the culprit by running the following query:

netstat -ltnp | grep -w ':80'

That should list everything running on port 80. Once port 80 is freed up pygmy should start up with no further errors.

Additionally if you'd like to make pygmy run on a different port you can add the replacement ports to your ~/.pygmy.yml :

$ cat ~/.pygmy.yml services: amazeeio-haproxy: HostConfig: PortBindings: 80/tcp: - HostPort: 8080 443/tcp: - HostPort: 443

Try pygmy clean in case you run into troubles.

If you need help, or if this does not solve the error, contact support.
