Package: amule
Version: 2.2.2-1
Severity: important
I have a multi-homed machine with 2 interfaces - eth0 (192.168.0.1) & eth1
(192.168.1.x). My router is
connected to eth1 and has ip address 192.168.1.254. When I run aMule on this
machine it starts up and
appears to bind the UPnP port TCP/50000 to eth0 instead of eth1, regardless of
whether I set a bind
address in the aMule preferences or not. (NB. according to 'netstat -ap' aMule
binds the UPnP port
TCP/50000 to all interfaces). It then fails to detect any WAN service - see
aMule log below:
2008-08-26 14:06:44: UPnPBase.cpp(868): Universal Plug and Play: bound to
192.168.0.1:50000.
2008-08-26 14:06:44: UPnPBase.cpp(939): Universal Plug and Play: UPnP Error:
CUPnPControlPoint::AddPortMapping: WAN Service not detected.
However a short time later, after 'Low-ID' connection to the ED2K network and
'firewalled' connection
to the KAD network, aMule finally notices that there is a UPnP capable router
accessible through eth1
and the aMule log shows:
2008-08-26 14:22:11: UPnPBase.cpp(562): Universal Plug and Play: Uninteresting

However it still does not open any ports on my router (192.168.1.254).
Afterwards I periodically get the following message in the aMule log:
2008-08-26 14:52:02: UPnPBase.cpp(1338): Universal Plug and Play:
UPNP_EVENT_AUTORENEWAL_FAILED:

'uuid:28e0dce2-1dd2-11b2-91d7-f7e3500ea8f3'.
Any ideas on how I can fix this? Is this something that tweaking a parameter in
the source and
re-compiling could fix?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Back in 2011 you found that UPnP worked with a different router, so the
problem was specific to the original one. I'm closing this bug; please
reopen it if UPnP still fails with the current version.
Regards,
Sandro
