Really strange error. Please post the exact commands you used (without censoring the hostname), and also the output of host <your-hostname> (in case there’s some garbage in your DNS / hosts file).

The problem is that -h needs a hostname, not a URL. So you’d use -h 127.0.0.1 -p 8000 to set host and port. Setting a base url in the command is not needed since it’s not different from the host/port you use.

Options:
  -h, --host HOST                 The ip/host to bind to.
  -p, --port PORT                 The port to bind to.
  -u, --url URL                   The URL used to access indico. Defaults to
                                  `http(s)://host:port`

PS: I’m not sure what went wrong there, but your post looks somewhat messed up (mix of config, output and then config again). Please check the formatting when posting, as having incomplete information makes it kind of hard to help you.

Also check how to past monospace content here (logs, configs) - you need to put a triple-backtick fence right before/after it…

```
paste your
output here

Thanks, it worked. Also thanks for the monospace advice .
