WebUI prevents Deluge restarting

[pete_h]

If WebUI is already running (for instance, if Deluge crashes) then I can't restart Deluge until I have manually killed the WebUI process.

Is this a known issue?

I'm running Ubuntu 7.10.

Heh, sorry... remembered to include the OS version, but not the Deluge version.

0.5.7.1, WebUI is rev.160

I can confirm this as well.

running deluge with the webui still running throws a "what(): Address already in use" error.

when deluge closes normally it closes the webui by killing it, so I'm guessing because it didn't get to shut it down, it doesn't get to kill it.

This happens to me as well. Deluge 0.5.7.1, XUbuntu 7.04.

Are you all shure that it is the webui preventing to start deluge?
the “what(): Address already in use” error indicates a zombie deluge/libtorrent process, see this faq:
http://deluge-torrent.org/faq.php#6n42

If you get another error it could be the webui, but for now i think deluge itself crashed .

I have the same issue. Deluge won't restart until I kill the WebUI process.

[johnnyg]

I'm sure it's webui - when you do

Code: Select all

ps aux | grep deluge

the process is

Code: Select all

python /usr/share/deluge/plugins/WebUi/run_webserver env=0.5

(or something like that)

and once you've killed it, deluge can start and no longer throws the "what(): address already in use" error

[mvoncken]

ok, i'll look in too it.

ditto

I accidentally crashed deluge by clicking a handful (5 or 6) of the first column pause buttons in rapid succession, as I thought it would work as expected. However, webUI and deluge stopped responding and cpu went to 100% for awhile. Killed main deluge process, but couldn't restart it due to address in use error. Found that the following process was left orphaned, and wasn't killed along with the deluge kill:

Code: Select all

python /usr/share/deluge/plugins/WebUi/run_webserver env=0.5

Worked normally after killing this process and restarting deluge.

This is ubuntu 7.10 and the new stable deluge release, if it helps.

thanks!
