Iguana Web Listen Errors

You may have reached this page if you encountered a port binding error while trying to start Iguana.

It is possible there could be another application listing on the port Iguana is configured to listen on or perhaps Iguana was not shut down cleanly.

To change the web port iguana is listening on, navigate to the executable and use the command line utility:

iguana --set_web_port 7650   

This will configure iguana to listen on the port specified the next time that it is run.

Other tools which can be useful for this problem is to use:

netstat -ano | findstr 7654   

Where 7654 is presumably the port Iguana is listening on. This may output something like:

C:\Program Files\IguanaX>netstat -ano | findstr 7654   
  TCP    0.0.0.0:7654           0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       1324   

In this case indicating that process ID 1324 is listening on port 7654. Once can try and kill this process using taskkill:

taskkill /PID 1324 /F   

Where 1324 is the process ID that is said to be listening on port 7654 from above. You'll need to adjust your numbers accordingly.

Sometimes the task which windows says is listening on a port isn't there. This is called a zombie process. So far the only solution we've found for that is to reboot the windows operating system.
