Windows Startup Error: Exception in thread SMTP Server

[melvinis]

Hi,

Could you pls help with the following:
I receive this error when attempting to start OpenEMM on a Windows Desktop

Code: Select all

Starting up .. home is C:\OpenEMM .. found codebase .. found database.
Running, press return for termination: Exception in thread SMTP Server:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python25\lib\threading.py", line 460, in __bootstrap
    self.run()
  File "C:\OpenEMM\bin\scripts\semu.py", line 757, in run
    Server.ServerLoop ()
  File "C:\OpenEMM\bin\scripts\semu.py", line 707, in __init__
    smtpd.SMTPServer.__init__ (self, ('0.0.0.0', 25), None)
  File "C:\Python25\lib\smtpd.py", line 281, in __init__
    self.listen(5)
  File "C:\Python25\lib\asyncore.py", line 299, in listen
    return self.socket.listen(num)
  File "<string>", line 1, in listen
  File "C:\Python25\lib\socket.py", line 141, in _dummy
    raise error(EBADF, 'Bad file descriptor')
error: (9, 'Bad file descriptor')

Are there any pre-requisites on a Windows machine that I need to watch out for ? This error didn't come, the first time I ran the Start.bat at which time I simply couldn;t access the OpenEMM console via http://localhost:8081/.
Any help that you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
