Three Ways to Resolve ElevenLabs MCP Port Conflicts
When the default port 8000 is occupied by other services, it can be flexibly resolved by the following scheme:
- Method 1: Modify the runtime port
Add the -port argument to the startup command to specify the new port, for example, use port 8080:
python -m elevenlabs_mcp --port=8080 - Method 2: Termination of Occupied Processes (for development environments)
1. Running in a terminallsof -i :8000Find Occupied Process PID
2. Utilizationkill [PID]Terminate the process - Method 3: Use port forwarding (recommended for production environments)
Configure a reverse proxy through Nginx to map the external port to port 8000 of the MCP service to avoid exposing the service port directly.
It is recommended that developers create a port profile that writes common ports to theconfig.iniImplement persistent settings to avoid manually entering parameters each time.
