NZBGet Version

v23-stable

Platform

macOS

Environment

2012 Mac Mini
macOS Mojave 10.14.6
Intel 64-bit

Running in Docker: No

Current Behavior

nzbget is not working for me on macOS Mojave. nzbget appears to be running as it shows up in Activity Monitor, but when you try to connect to the web interface, it says "Could not establish connection to downloader (background process)."

The crash log shows the following:
