commBind: Cannot bind socket FD 10 to [::]:3128: (1) Operation not permitted

[fragtion]

Hi

Failed to bind port on first run / new installation on Windows 10 (Version 2004 OS Build 19603.1000)

Could it be the fact that I'm running a version of Windows 10 for Insiders ?

Notes:

1. My Windows Firewall is disabled.
2. I did try to change http_port 3128 to another port
3. I did try to bind to non-IPV6 address, same problem.

I presume it relates to this cause and has something to do with cygwin?

Any advice?

In the meanwhile I'll try the VM Appliance ...

Thanks

Hm I have it running on latest Win 10 but not the insider build of course :( might be something related to permissions with that default LOCAL SYSTEM user that runs the binary? Anything in the system/auth event log?

Hi again. Thanks for prompt response. I've done some further testing and discovered that this is not an issue with Squid for Windows after all (just a bit unlucky that squid's default ports are affected)

For some reason I just can't listen on some port ranges (1551-3489 and 7479-8278). Still trying to figure out exact cause & solution, as no application seems to be binding to those ports and firewall is off

Will advise if I find a solution as it may assist other users who run into this problem, but since it is not technically a Squid issue, you may close this ticket if you wish as I don't expect a solution to come from here

Thanks:))

Just a quick note to say that I've managed to track down the problem cause for this behavior...

Apologies once again for the false issue report for Diladele Squid for Windows -
I am happy to report that my Squid for Windows is now working great since applying this fix.

Oh good; but please be sure to check the issue #86 too.
