Host(Server + Client) not working after GameOverHandler implementation

[Vandereck]

Hi,

After the unit base building lesson I am not able anymore to host server plus client.

When I go into play mode and click on Host (Server + Client) I get this (inactive/disconnected) message

And in the console instead of having the Server: listening port = 7777, I got the following log message:
‘’’
Server Thread stopped. That’s okay. System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted.

UnityEngine.Debug:Log (object)
Telepathy.Server:Listen (int) (at Assets/Mirror/Runtime/Transport/Telepathy/Server.cs:169)
Telepathy.Server/<>c__DisplayClass9_0:b__0 () (at Assets/Mirror/Runtime/Transport/Telepathy/Server.cs:196)
System.Threading.ThreadHelper:ThreadStart ()

‘’’

I checked online for some solution, but the only thing I found was to change my port from 7777 to 8659.

This fixes the problem, but I could not find out why the problem started in the first instance and why changing to that number fixes it.

Many thanks for the help.

I guess something else on your computer is using the 7777 port already? Perhaps you have a build of the game that didn’t shutdown it’s connection properly. You could try restarting your computer and see if that helps.

It worked, thank you, so apparently I had something still using that connection in the background. Is this something that could happen in a final product as well, and if so, is there anything I could do to close all the connections to that port when the game is closed?
