Hi team, i am trying to spin up my first project using meltano. When I type in “meltano-ui”, i run into a can't connect to the 5000 port but I don't have anything running there. Any help?

Are you by any chance on a Mac?

I am using a MacBook air...Here is a screenshot after I type in "meltano ui".

So I am guessing this is an issue we discovered last week. You’re on Monterey I take it?
c
Yep!

That’s what I thought!
So there are two routes to take.

Sounds like you're on top of it! can i follow updates somewhere?
we just added this to the docs
Apple decided to use AirPlay for port 5000. you can either bind meltano to a different port or the easier method is to open Settings -> Sharing -> turn off AirPlay Receiver.
After that you should be good to go

Great, I'll turn it off and try again 🙂 thanks Alex!

Sure thing. Let me know if it didn’t work and we can troubleshoot the answer but I bet that takes care of it!

It worked! partywizard

hizzah! glad it was an easy fix!

In case someone is trying to get this work without disabling Airplay service on macOS, one can simply choose a custom port
Copy code
meltano ui --bind-port 5555
