Had to change the FQDN for localhost, and that worked.

Hey, this is just a misconfiguration. It looks like the bind value in the [server] section of your config is set to quark.rocks, and the application rightfully can't bind to its address.

For most setups, you'll want to bind to localhost, i.e. if you leave bind blank and it should work. Let us know if that doesn't, though.
