Default Web browser interface - Can someone help with this problem?

I am getting errors when I try to use web browser interface. It returns the error Control Surface: Error opening port(s) I am using 8080

can anybody help me figure this out? I am kind of bummed out not being able to use this feature and have tried to get help a few different times without any response at all.

I'm not on this forum a lot, so hopefully someone will help after my drive by response here, if it doesn't help... but my first guess would be a firewall of some sort.

If you're using Windows, try disabling the built-in firewall temporarily (if that works, you'll just want Google how to open up port 8080). I personally just tested out the remote control, and after I went to the rc URL (rc.reaper.fm/yourremoteid), I clicked on the link on the success page and it hung up. I then disabled Windows firewall and got through.

Your home router's firewall would be the next thing to check if disabling any software firewalls doesn't work, but I don't think that would be needed since this is all LAN related (I am not sure though).

Failing all of that, maybe Kenny's video on the Web Interface might offer insight, but I haven't actually watched it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkMA...el=REAPERMania
