After setting up the outstreamcmd parameter in rpt.conf
with ezstream on my DIAL AllStar node I noticed that when I
stopped and restarted the asterisk service, I was getting the
following error in the log:
[Oct 29 23:15:37] WARNING[19838] manager.c: Unable to bind
socket: Address already in use
I found that after a service asterisk stop, port 5038 was
still in use.
my manager.conf file has port = 5038
prior to a service asterisk stop - I get the following:
root@Server1:~# ps -ef | grep 7497
root 7497 1 24 13:45 ? 00:09:24
/usr/sbin/asterisk
root 7528 7497 0 13:45 ? 00:00:00 /bin/sh
-c /usr/bin/lame --preset cbr 16 -r -m m -s 8 --bitwidth 16
- - | /usr/bin/ezstream -qvc /etc/asterisk/ezstream.xml
after a service asterisk stop I can still see port 5038 in
use:
root@Server1:~# netstat -nlp|grep 5038
Now, when I issue asterisk service start I get the
following error:
manager.c: Unable to bind socket: Address already in use
and Asterisk fails to load
If I kill pid 7528 then my service asterisk start works
fine.
I assume outstreamcmd is using manager, shells out to
ezstream which is a child of asterisk, and when asterisk shuts
down, the process running ezstream is left running.
Should I put something in my asterisk startip script to
look for processes using 5038 and kill them?
Thanks
