What port are you using? Only root can open the lower ports.

Can you run it on the machine locally? Is this a connection to the Internet or the server is not running at all?

yes, my bad i forgot only root can use ports < 1000
i tried to use port 99

now its running fine on port 3000
i also needed to add 'subsonic' user into 'sudo' group
otherwise it wasnt working
