videocache-1.6-1 error

by Anonymous on 16 Dec 2008

Hi,

I'm having problem with videocache-1.6-1, I got this error.

Exception in thread Thread-2:

My system is:

Fedora Core 6 X64
videocache-1.6-1 (rpm install)
python-2.4.3-18.fc6
python-urlgrabber-2.9.9-2
python-iniparse-0.2.2-1.fc6
httpd-2.2.6-1.fc6

How to fix this error? Thanks.

Restarting or reloading the squid proxy server should normally solve this problem. But in case you can't get rid of it, then please check your SELinux settings. Please disable it to run videocache without any problems.

SELinux is already disabled, restarting squid and the problem still exist. Did I miss something?

by Kulbir Saini on 16 Dec 2008

Please see if anything else (other service) is listening on the port 9100.

Use netstat -atpn |grep 9100

If anything else is listening on this port, change the port to some number on which no other application is listening.

Otherwise contact using contact tab on top.

Thank you for using videocache :)

You need to wait until ALL the TIME_WAIT sockets go away too,

You might also want to try the HEAD version which fixes some issues with the XMLRPC client/server comms.

by Kulbir Saini on 17 Dec 2008

Thanks Imriz for the insight. But what do you think may be the reason for TIME_WAIT sockets? I can't really get into the depth of this.

Hi,

here is my netstat -atpn |grep 9100:

Hi Sizulku,

Can you please try replacing your /usr/share/videocache/videocache.py with this videocache.py? Otherwise contact me using this contact form, we'll figure it out :)

by sizulku on 18 Dec 2008

Hi Kulbir,

I try to contact you through contact form but seemed you did not receive it.

I've try to use videocache.py from the given link but it still did not work, its also shutdown squid when I try to restart squid's service. Here is the logs:

Hi Sizulku,

I am sorry I couldn't reply. I have replied now. Check your mail.

Thank you for considering videocache :)

by imriz on 20 Dec 2008

It is a feature of the TCP stack (http://www.developerweb.net/forum/showthread.php?t=2941).

I think we have those after a videocache shutdown beacause the XML-RPC server is not releasing the socket properly.

I have the same problem, running in python 2.5 on MAC OX 10.5.6.
Any solution?

by Kulbir Saini on 1 Jan 2009

Hi Joaquim,

Can you please lookup your squid cache.log file and check for python tracebacks in there? It would help me in suggesting a solution.

Thank you for considering videocache :)

by Phantam on 15 Jan 2009

in 10.5.6 running apache and the latest videocache, followed the tutorial exactly, using php 2.4 ...

cache.log has many of these

Also i have confirmed that i do see that metacafe cached... but youtube isnt for some reason.

by Kulbir Saini on 19 Jan 2009

Hello Phantam,

There is a problem with your XMLRPC Server attached with videocache. Can you please try restart squid. Also see if you have any iptables rules for port 9100. The port 9100 should not be blocked.

Thank You!

by Anonymous on 5 May 2009

Try

fuser -k 9100/tcp

this kill all sockets in 9100 port...
