This usually indicates exo is already running or something else is running on port 8000 (we've since changed the default port to 52415, but it hasn't made its way into the macOS app yet). Can you check ps aux | grep exo?

That's right, app still using 8000 port which is already occupied. I would suggest to show explicit error description as well.

EXO crashing when the port is occupied will be fixed in the next version, so I'm closing this issue. Let me know if it still causes problems in the next version and we can investigate further.
