Couldn't grab nearby port

[FakeZ]

Hi all,

my BOT runs fince since a couple of weeks now, but till today i cant start him. I'll get the following error message:

[23:24] Couldn't grab nearby port
while executing
"listen 6938 all"
(file "eggdrop.conf" line 33)
[23:24] * CONFIG FILE NOT LOADED (NOT FOUND, OR ERROR)
BOT@shell8:~/eggdrop$

But the Port is "free" so, what is the Problem here ?
