Change Port 8080 of chirpstack-application-server

dalmeidac · June 10, 2022, 3:51am

Hello, I’m trying to change the port of chirpstack-application-server in the file located in: /etc/chirpstack-application-server/chirpstack-application-server.toml

in the line [applocation_server.external_api]
bind=“0.0.0.0:8080”

to other port like 80 or 443 but always the server can’t start and I obtain this Error messages:
chirpstack-application-server.service - ChirpStack Application Server

Can someone help me to solve this error. Thank you very much

Port 80 and 443 are privileged ports, I expect this is the issue. Please try starting the chirpstack-application-server binary from the CLI to see the full error logs.
