How to start PyCharm using port 80

Question

I cannot start my PyCharm development environment using port 80. I need to use PayPal, which requires me to use port 80. But with Mac OS X 10.8, I cannot get it to work due to permission problems. I already tried to start PyCharm using the SUDO command.

Does anyone know how to start Pycharm using port 80 or any other solution?

Thanks.

For those looking for the answer to this question, check out your Pycharm startup / debugging settings. Run-> Edit Configurations → Port

To grant PyCharm permissions, you must run as Administor (Windows) or using sudo , if on OSX / Linux: sudo /Applications/PyCharm.app/Contents/MacOS/pycharm . Please note that this really launches PyCharm as a new user, so you will need to register the application again and configure your settings again if you have one (for example, theme, server profiles, etc.)
