OB(1) remote change port

Questions
1

Hello,

I wanted to know how to make the OpenBullet API works on another port instead of 5000.

Does anyone know ?

I’ve tried dotnet ./OpenBulletAPI.dll --urls “http://*:[CUSTOM_PORT]” but still wants the 5000

Maybe it works if you configure it through appsettings.json

Thanks a lot for your quick response. I really appreciate.

What would be the line to add in your opinion @Ruri ?

Here is how I’ve added it. However, it keeps saying : “Now listening on: http://0.0.0.0:5000”

:pensive:

Sorry I meant http://*:8501 not localhost. Anyways I cannot give more support for this as OB1 is obsolete and everything related to it will receive no more support from me, sorry.

Facing similar issues, says I localhost:5000 is already in use. How do I go about it and I have already tried the solution above still not working. (Ob2)

Hello @jeu.console.49 @Nortaclus

I did not understand everything but if you want to change your port it takes less than 1 minute
If you have problems with port 5000 go to your Openbullet 2 folder then to the json file called “appsettings.Release.json” once you are inside it looks like this :

In the case above we wanted to put 8501 as the port so we’ll do it like this

Then afterwards we save the file CTRL + S and start Openbullet 2

As you can see the change has been made.

Now let’s try in the browser :

As you can see it works very well let’s try with port 5000

As you can see port 5000 is no longer supported so no longer use
