The bottle web server in hogwatch binds itself to port 6432. Failure can mean that there is another process using that port or maybe a previous instance for hogwatch didn't quit properly. You will have to check that, also ensure that you are using nethogs 0.8.2 +

Might be worth trying to run the app in server only mode with a different port with sudo hogwatch server 9000 and viewing it in your browser localhost:9000

I do not maintain this software. I made it for a college assignment.

ok, solved, it didn't quit properly as you said.
