Address already in use running multiple instances

[criddle1091]

In previous versions, I have been able to run two instances of UMS. One for the kids and one for the adults. I updated to 6.0.0 today and this is no longer the case.

One is run as my normal user and one as root user from different locations on the hdd. "Only run an single instance of UMS" is unchecked in both copies. Both server and web ports have been changed in the root copy so it shouldn't interfere with the other and the web interfaces have been turned off, but I still get the error.

From the log file:
ERROR 2016-02-04 21:32:10.512 [main] A serious error occurred during Universal Media Server initialization: Address already in use

I have attached logs for both instances. In this case, I ran the copy for my user first and then attempted to run as root, which received the error. It does not matter which one starts first, the second copy receives the error.

I appreciate any help you can provide.

Sincerely,
Chris

I see no sign of the web interface being either turned off or it's port changed. The parameters are:

Code: Select all

web_enable =
web_port = 

Either disable the web interface on one instance, or change the web port (the default is 9001) on one instance. The only thing changed in 6.0.0 is that this error is no longer suppressed.

Apologies. I was editing the UMS.conf in the program directory instead of in the .config/UMS directory. I added the parameter to the ~/.config/UMS/UMS.conf and it solved it.

For what it's worth, the .config dir file hadn't been changed from the previous working version.

The bind error has been there all along, but it wasn't exposed in previous versions.

I have the same problem, please, How can I do fix it??

Have you made sure that all ports are different for the two configurations? If not, this will happen.
