Had the same thing happen to me... here was what I posted about it (no<br>
replies) under "Connections on port 6544 hung in "CLOSE_WAIT" status." on<br>
10/11/12 :<br>
<br>
<br>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
Was this a fluke, or has anyone else noticed this.<br>
<br>
Running mythtv 0.25.3 (nightly from 3 or 4 nights ago).<br>
<br>
I just noticed today that I cannot open the mythweb "backend status" page,<br>
or open the webpage at port 6544 (worked fine yesterday). Everything else<br>
appears to work fine.<br>
<br>
I have seen other references to this, however none of them give a<br>
resolution other than restarting the backend. I acutally had to kill the<br>
backend with "pkill -9" as mentioned in this thread:<br>
<a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1956936" target="_blank">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1956936</a> in order to get it working<br>
again.<br>
<br>
Netstat shows many connections to 6544 in the "CLOSE_WAIT" status... none<br>
of which seem to be clearing out on their own.<br>
<br>
A quick test after the pkill and restart and I am seeing the connections<br>
get closed as expected... I hope it was just an oddity and not a sign of<br>
things to come. I had rebooted my back end server 3 days ago, so if it<br>
does this every 3 days or so it's gonna get frustrating.<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
I haven't had it reoccur, but it was unusual. Your the first similar case<br>
I have heard of.<br>
<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>Thanks. I found 3 mybackend processes running. Not sure why? After I deleted them with 'pkill -9 mythbackend', one popped right back. My feeling is that when I tried mythbackend setup, it did not close the backend but restarted another. <br>
