java.io.IOException: Unable to establish loopback connection

[akhliber]

Hey guys... As of the past few days I can no longer access my subsonic site. The address times out and the only other error I can find is on the Subsonic control panel, which states:

"java.io.IOException: Unable to establish loopback connection"

any ideas on how to fix this? any help would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried restarting the Subsonic process? Sometimes that fixes odd problems.

Can you include a log excerpt so we can see more of what's happening?

Cheers,
Kirk

I tried restarting the service, and it no longer shows the same error message in the control panel, but the problem is not resolved. I haven't made any firewall or router changes and it was working without a hitch before.
Not sure which part of the subsonic log is important, so I hope it's okay to just post it in its entirety. Bear with me here
here's a complete past of the log currently, hope this helps. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Thanks again

Well, you should probably wait and post the log when you actually see an IOException in it... that way we possibly can tell what's going wrong. The log excerpt you posted doesn't contain the error.

And, I disagree.. The problem is resolved if it doesn't come back. We'll see... if you get the error again copy and paste the log segment for us please.

Cheers,
Kirk
