Port 8080: Who Uses?

[PeteCress]

Sage seems to have port 8080 open, but I cannot figure out how to change it.

Sage.Properties has an entry: sagex/api/httpPort=8080, but when I shut down Sage, change it to 8081, and re-start Sage, NetScan says that 8080 is still in use.

OTOH, if I check when Sage is shut down, 8080 is not in use.

You need to bring up SageTV got to Installed plugins and configure the Jetty server.

That did it. Thanks!

For the benefit of anybody else who comes here, you need to stop the SageTV service, shut down the SageTV application, and then restart to see the change take effect.

That was a *really* quick response.... I guess SageTV lives on in spite of all...

One thing about port 8080. My cable company is Rogers Cable and I have a Hitron CGN3 gateway. (This is one of very few 24x8 DOCSIS 3 modems available and is required for my 250/20 service). When you use it in Gateway mode you cannot forward port 8080 since it seems to use that itself for control access. You can get around this by putting it in modem mode and use your own router, which make sense for lots of other reasons as well.

That works, too, but you can also force Jetty to reload itself by "touching" the jetty-ssl.xml file.
