Status: Closed (was: Open)
We are going to be solving this problem more generally to warn users of
potentially dangerous changes.
> Can't bind to port 47760, Address already in use
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BIT-253
> URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-253
> Project: Bro Issue Tracker
> Issue Type: Problem
> Components: BroControl
> Affects Versions: 1.5.2
> Reporter: tyler.schoenke
> Assignee: Daniel Thayer
> Priority: Low
> Fix For: 2.5
>
>
> I ran into some strange behavior with the cluster. I was still receiving
> email alerts, but the log files on the manager contained only headers with no
> log messages. The connection summary emails had the columns and summaries
> with all of the values being empty.
> I ran a dumpcap on my manager's eth0 filtering my worker IP, and saw that the
> logs were being sent to the manager. I could start the cluster run broctl
> stats, and diag with no errors. I finally saw "Can't bind to port 47760,
> Address already in use" in the remote.log on the manager. After stopping the
> cluster and looking for LISTENing processes, saw that something was bound to
> that port. I checked for running bro processes and saw that some hadn't
> terminated when the cluster was stopped. After killing those, the cluster
> started working properly.
> My enhancement request is to have something added to the cluster startup
> script that reports an error if the manager or workers encounter an error
> binding to a port. This error could either prevent the cluster from
> starting, or just print some message to let the user know there is a problem
> with port binding.
