Cannot assign requested address error with bitcoin-abe

Question

I have been playing around with bitcoin-abe for the last few days, getting it to load the dogecoin blockchain. Everything works perfectly on my localhost and when I go to http://localhost:2750 everything works fine. Unfortunately, as soon as I move it to a live server with the following config:

dbtype sqlite3
connect-args doge.sqlite
port 2750
host SERVER_IP_ADDRESS
datadir = [{
        "dirname": "/home/ubuntu/.dogecoin",
        "chain": "Dogecoin",
        "code3": "DOGE",
        "address_version": "\u001e",
        "magic": "\u00c0\u00c0\u00c0\u00c0",
        "conf": "dogecoin.conf",
        "trim_depth": 40
        }]
commit-bytes = 100000
keep-scriptsig = false
int-type str

I get this error when I start up:

ubuntu@ip-10-198-38-95:~$ sudo python -m Abe.abe --config doge.conf 
Opened /home/ubuntu/.dogecoin/blocks/blk00022.dat

    return getattr(self._sock,name)(*args)
socket.error: [Errno 99] Cannot assign requested address

Is there something that I am missing?

Answer 1

OK so I was asleep at the helm. I just needed to use 0.0.0.0 as the host.
