Sickchill: Localhost refused to connect

[AlexGr3]

Hello everyone,
Sickchill was working just fine until yesterday when I couldnt access the web page. Is there any way to fix that? Thanks a lot. #

We will need a bit more information to help you troubleshoot what's going on with your install.

• Have you tried turning it off and back on again?
• On what system are you running SickChill (hardware/OS)
• Can you find your logfiles and see what they are saying?

How can I turn it on and off if I cant access the webui? I am running it on windows 10 currently and the only logfile I can see is the following.
sickchill.log

Hello Everyone,

looks like I have the same problem: "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED". Extra info:

• Using PC running Windows 10 1803 and latest version of Chrome (but also used Firefox and IE to check)
• I updated from Sickrage to SickChill on 21st of Oct. Using instructions from here.
• I noticed the problem today, but checking sickchill.log the latest update is from yesterday (30 oct, 15:52 CET) stating: INFO EVENT-QUEUE :: Shutting down Tornado
  2018-10-30 15:52:09 INFO EVENT-QUEUE :: Restarting SickChill with.... (Full log below). A few events/lines before it, it looks like SickChill is autoupdating. The same events are in the logs mijollo and AlexGr3 uploaded.
• Checking Windows taskmanager shows python.exe using around 50% of my CPU capacity. (Quadcore CPU)
• Checking services.msc shows the sickrage service is running.
• Rebooting SickChill and/or PC didn't help. Python.exe comes back up and starts taking around 50% CPU again. Tried multiple times with same result.
• More people are reporting the same problem on Reddit here.

Thanks in advance and I hope this extra info helps solving this issue.

I have solved it following the instructions at: ["How to fix things"] https://github.com/SickChill/SickChill/issues/5022#issuecomment-428463717

With the actual repository https://github.com/SickChill/SickChill.git

And finally doing a: git pull

[AlexGr3]

Thats not gonna fix it for me since I installed SickChill from scratch so the issue isnt the fact that echelon messed up sickrage.

Just do a git pull and all will be well. Oct30 there was a bad commit on my birthday. On windows you can stop/start the service through the service manager or on the command line with net stop sickchill and net start sickchill

net stop sickchill
cd C:\SickChill\SickChill
C:\SickChill\Git\bin\git pull
net start sickchill

[AlexGr3]

Cheerios! I fixed it by backing up everything and doing a quick reinstall!

Thanks miigotu, it worked! And I know I'm to late but: Happy Birthday!
