Hi @ankurpython, It seems that IPFS Desktop failed to detect that something was already running on 5001, or it did and you chose not to change the ports. The error is clear, there is something running on port 5001. Do you perhaps know what it is? I see you're on Linux, so if you run: You can see whatever process is running on that port, shut it down, and retry. |

Oops, seems like we needed more information for this issue, please comment with more details or this issue will be closed in 7 days. |

@lidel as per our discussion yesterday, I checked if the workflow for detecting the busy ports is working correctly and it seems to be working well on both macOS and Windows. Could you check if it works well on your Linux distro? It may be an issue with Linux in general, or a specific distribution. |

@hacdias how did you test? I've shut down IPFS node and run unrelated HTTP server on port 5001 via $ npx serve -l 5001 -dThen I started $ ./ipfs-desktop-0.22.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage

@lidel that is exactly what I did (albeit I used
It clearly is a problem with Linux, but we need to understand if it is a general error, or specifically to certain distributions. |

Seems like we need to do some debugging in Linux |

@lidel is OOO this week so this will probably be delayed until he gets back |
