Some exception: "Failed to create socket"

Hi guys,

I'm getting the following error after clicking "Play" (see link below). This is dependent on which drive Minetest is on. C: drive is fine and doesn't give this error. X: drive used to work but is now giving this error. N: drive used to give the error but is now working. The IT guys at school think it has something to do with changing permissions? I need it working on the shared X: drive again...

Thanks,

Jonty

Not sure if that image link is working but it says "ERROR[Main]: Some exception: "Failed to create socket"

Anyone got any ideas about this? I really want to get this working at my school.

It very likely is permissions related.

Have you changed the port?

Thanks est31, I'll give that a go when I'm back at school in a week.

Can you try this again with the latest development version of minetest?
