[mythtv-users] Web Frontend stopped working yesterday

As my Internet provider again changed my IP and I no longer use a MythTV
frontend on another computer, I set the backend IP to 127.0.0.1. I made
also some system upgrades, which did not change MythTV but perhaps some
libraries used. I don't remember any other intentional changes.

Frontend works, Web frontend does not:

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at localhost:6544.

Nmap doesn't show the port 6544:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Starting Nmap 7.70 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2019-03-08 07:28 CET
Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)
Host is up (0.000092s latency).
Other addresses for localhost (not scanned): ::1
Not shown: 994 closed ports
PORT     STATE SERVICE
22/tcp   open  ssh
25/tcp   open  smtp
80/tcp   open  http
631/tcp  open  ipp
3306/tcp open  mysql
6543/tcp open  mythtv
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

An attempt to connect to

http://localhost:6543/

just gives the message "Waiting for localhost..."

MythTV is version 30.0-dmo3 on Debian testing.

Best regards

Janusz

P.S. I notice another probably unrelated problem: backend stopped at
night for some unknown reason.
