New to this wholes scripting things and im running Pol 95

I have this problem when I run Pol.exe to start the server up again.

Server Shutdown: opening listen socket
Execution aborted due to: Unable to bind listening socket, res=-1

Can anyone give me a quick tutorial as to why this happened and how to reboot my server after compiling scripts?

Sounds like you might be trying to run POL on a port already in use by another program. Try changing the port POL uses.

I understand that your POL runs fine, then you shut it down to change something withing the scripts and when you restart POL it spits out the error.
If this is the case it may have something to do with socket listen() timeout... if you wait 60 or more seconds then POL is capable of starting again?
