Service not starting, not logging consistantly

I cannot seem to start damonized plexconnect now.  After  issuing the "sudo service plexconnect start" command, the message indicates that it's starting but when I check using "status" it's not running.  the PlexConnect.log isn't being updated and there's no mention of plexconnect within /var/syslog.  Where else can I look for a clue?  Isn't it odd that there's no updates in either of these logfiles?

 

I have noticed that the log does contain some entries (from a different time, no date specified) complaining that UDP port 53 was already in use, but when I check now, there's no indication that 53 is being used now:

tom@HouseMedia:~$ lsof -i :53
tom@HouseMedia:~$ lsof -i udp:53

ATV 3, firmware/software 6.0.1

Plexconnect (0.3.1+) and PMS (0.9.9.14)  both located on same device with IP 192.168.0.111

Python 2.7.5

DNS on ATV set to 192.168.0.111

Settings.cfg file:

[PlexConnect]
port_pms = 32400
port_webserver = 80
ip_plexconnect = 0.0.0.0
certfile = ./assets/certificates/trailers.pem
ip_dnsmaster = 208.122.23.23
loglevel = High
enable_dnsserver = True
logpath = /home/tom/PlexConnect-master/PlexConnect.log
ip_pms = 192.168.0.111
enable_plexgdm = False
hosttointercept = trailers.apple.com
port_ssl = 443
enable_webserver_ssl = True
prevent_atv_update = True
port_dnsserver = 53
enable_plexconnect_autodetect = True

turns out that the symlink /etc/init.d/plexconnect vanished.  The file was still there but it wasn't a symlink...anymore.  Fixed it!
