🐛 Describe the bug

Hi,

I am trying to run LlamaStack - But Facing Port 5000 already in use.

1. llama-stack/llama-stack/distributions/ollama % docker compose up

Error response from daemon: Ports are not available: exposing port TCP 0.0.0.0:5000 -> 0.0.0.0:0: listen tcp4 0.0.0.0:5000: bind: address already in use

2. I tried to change port like below in ollama compose file.

It is also able to run like below

2.1 Now when I try to hit api like below -

I get blank response - for Port 5000

I get Failed to connect error - for New Port 6000

Can you kindly guide ?

hi @bigbansal, this is most probably your mac AirPlay is using 5000 by default, you could change the port used:

1. if using docker run --port $LLAMA_STACK_PORT \ or refer here: https://llama-stack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started/index.html#start-the-llama-stack-server

2. if using llama stack run add flag --port=5001
