Windows Error Plexconnect: Failed to create socket on UDP port 53: [Errno 10048]

brian.tison_gmail.com · June 27, 2013, 1:32am

I'm trying to setup plexconnect on my windows machine and I'm getting the error below when I run plexconnect.py in python... see below... I saw a similar posting for OSX via search but didn't see a solution for a windows machine....

Anything helps!

Are you running any kind of firewall on the machine? Also are you running a dns server by any sort?

brian.tison_gmail.com · June 27, 2013, 1:42am

I'm running a firewall through Norton internet security.... I disabled the firewall and also I created a rule to always allow python.exe to run

I do not know if I am running a dns server of any sort... is there a way I can find out? Other things of particular interest I have citrix installed on the machine but I can uninstall that since I no longer have use for it.....

I did a netstat -a (not sure why I saw others do it... ) but just included the UDP stuff

C:\Users\HP AMD>netstat -a

Are you running windows server?

brian.tison_gmail.com · June 27, 2013, 8:48pm

Are you running windows server?

No I am not...

f00b4r · June 27, 2013, 8:51pm

Try rebooting your machine, if tat does not work take a look at this:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897437.aspx

You have something running on the DNS port and maybe port 80 as well.

Edit: put wrong link up originally.

Spudbynight · August 29, 2013, 5:50pm

Are you running windows server?

I have the same issue and I AM running Windows server. Well, Windows Home Server.

Is there something I need to do to fix this?

murderdoch · September 21, 2013, 4:30am

I am having the same error. It wouldnt have anything to do with the certifcation does it?

baa · September 21, 2013, 6:53am

No, it wouldn't.

Unless your "same" is more like "different"...

EricnM · November 13, 2013, 4:02am

I am also having this issue and AM running windows server 2012. I did the recommendation to use IIS and URL rewrite but that didnt seem to work either.

Any ideas????
