zola serve
tries to find a port in the range 1000 and up.Ports 0–1023 are known as well-known ports and require root privileges on at Linux and likely macOS to bind a socket to them.
This (an excerpt from HTML served by
zola serve
) using port 1024 might be no coincidence:Thus, just ignore those and start right after them (in the "registered ports" range).
