Earlier today I had to force a restart of my mac. After restart I attempted 
to start web2py from a terminal session as I have done many times before

sudo python web2py.py -a 'password' -i 1.0.0.1 -p 8000


I got the following error


ERROR:Rocket.Errors.Port8000:Socket 1.0.0.1:8000 in use by other process 
and it won't share.

WARNING:Rocket.Errors.Port8000:Listener started when not ready.


When from terminal I attempt to see what is using port 8000 I see it is not 
in use and when I try to start web2py using a different port (also not in 
use) I get the same error.


I need to launch web2py from the terminal as root otherwise it points to an 
incorrect version of pymongo (following the advice in this 
thread https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/web2py/SPVDQPYBxKI) so I 
can't launch from the front-end. Despite this, when I do try to start web2p 
from the front-end is hangs with no error message. 


I have searched for a solution to this but there is nothing specific to 
this issue. I think the forced restart of my mac caused web2py to see port 
8000 as being in use even though it isn't - I can start other local servers 
using it. 


Thank you,

Heather
