Yes it's a mythbuntu installation.

Hi,<br>
<br>
I am having problems getting the airplayserver to start on my frontend. In<br>
the mythfrontend.log the following repeats itself:<br>
Failed listening on TCP [fe80::e269:95ff:fe53:236c%<u></u>eth0]:5000 - Error 9:<br>
The address is not available<br>
<br>
This port number then increases up till over 5010, and then the service<br>
seems to start, however the problem is that my iThings cannot connect to<br>
the frontend unless the services are running on port 5000 and 5100.<br>
<br>
If I restart the mythfrontend program the services start on the correct<br>
ports. I think my problem is with the IPv6 address not being initialized<br>
before the service tries to start. I have tried to set the IPv6 manually<br>
and also disable IPv6 entirely on the machine.<br>
<br>
I can't be the only one with this problem? Anyone have any ideas?<br>

Hi;<br>
<br>
I have a similar problem with my backend starting and have worked with<br>
two other folks with problems like it.<br>
<br>
Quick and dirty test: add sleep 5 (adjust based on timestamps in you log)<br>
just before starting your FE. Are you running *buntu?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
