When trying to start the web-server, I get the -5 error (system socket error). How do I correct?

Hi Steve,

There are a number of possible issues that could cause this. The most common one I've seen is a port conflict, where another web server application is bound already to the port you specify. By default, it is set to port 80. I would try changing the port number in INET_StartWebServer to something else (e.g., 8080) and see if that changes anything. If you prefer to keep the same port number, then disable any of the other web server applications. Hope this helps!
