Possibly another service is running on the chosen port. What does your debug log say?

OK so I am a little puzzled: is this solved or not?

yes and no... the webserver is not working but I don't care because the remote is now working... by inputting port 9090 into the app
So as far as I'm concerned yes its solved..
Technically no I guess.

My guess is the port is already in use

That was my first thought and I've checked, but it's not. I've tried various other ports (both with and without firewalls disabled), all with the same result.

This is the same issue @sir Wellington has. I tried for a few hours to help to no avail. Nothing running on the port, changed port, disabled security software firewall, etc

So I had another crack at resolving this today and still no success.
- I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling (including deleting profile).
- I re-downloaded the software and run both the installer and the program itself explicitly as administrator
- I've removed Yatse (+ addons) & Offiicial XBMC remote control from my phone and XBMC starter app from windows (which is the only software I've installed since XBMC on either device and also the only software that may be interfering with XBMC somehow)
- I've gone through my Windows Event log thoroughly looking for anything, and then recreated the issue to check for any updates (nothing found)
I'm now at a complete blank. The fact it worked in the first place is what makes this extra baffling as nothing has changed on the system that I know of. Regrettably it seems I'm going to have to find an alternative without the functionality XBMC provides.
