Unable to Run Rails Server on Port 80 in Yosemite

Question

I am using RubyMine. I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Yosemite. When I try to set Port 80 I get following error.

/Users/xx/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.2.1/lib/ruby/2.2.0/socket.rb:206:in `bind': Permission denied - bind(2) for 127.0.0.1:80 (Errno::EACCES)

I did not have such issue on 10.6.8. Is it possible to run on port 80?

Did you make sure you don't have anything else running on port 80? — sebkkom, Mar 26 '15 at 05:50
@sevenseacat I did not have such issue for 10.6.8 at all. Now I don' know how to make RubyMine run a command with Sudo — Volatil3, Mar 26 '15 at 05:56

@Volatil3 This looks like a different problem, see here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9212116/rails-could-not-find-railties — sebkkom, Mar 26 '15 at 06:19

My solution:

vmsudo rails server -p 80

As @sevenseacat said you have to run with sudo for ports below 1024. See this and this.

While we are at it, though, may I recommend pow?

rvmsudo is not working either saying: `Warning: can not check `/etc/sudoers` for `secure_path`, falling back to call via `/usr/bin/env`, this breaks rules from `/etc/sudoers`. Run:`. I did this ` export rvmsudo_secure_path=1`, still no difference – Volatil3 Mar 26 '15 at 06:17
