koboldcpp.py:1380 When I launch multiple instance of koboldcpp in same port by mistake, It won't get a error.(because of the resuse)

console:

Starting Kobold API on port 5001 at http://localhost:5001/api/
Starting OpenAI Compatible API on port 5001 at http://localhost:5001/v1/
======
Please connect to custom endpoint at http://localhost:5001

Good point. I will check if the port is bound and add a warning message text if so.

Should be fixed in latest release
