Supervisor unable to open HTTP server

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I followed the instructions at 
http://sites.google.com/site/gaeasaframework/typhoonae to install TyphoonAE

When running supervisord, it fails, claiming that it was unable to open an 
HTTP server.

Error: Cannot open an HTTP server: socket.error reported -5

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Most recent from the code repository, Ubuntu 9.04

Haven't seen this before. This may happen due to a conflicting port 
configuration in 
TYPHOONAE_ROOT/etc/supervisord.conf. The default configuration starts the 
supervisor as a daemon. 
Change the supervisor configuration to run in the foreground. To achieve this 
edit 
TYPHOONAE_ROOT/etc/supervisord.conf as described here:

1) Delete the [inet_http_server] and [supervisorctl] sections
2) In the [supervisord] section set the nodaemon flag to true
3) Run bin/supervisord

Please let me know if this works for you.

It seems removing [inet_http_server] and [supervisorctl] sections permits it to 
start 
successfully.

Could you provide the error message with full traceback (if any), please?

Thanks!

AFAIK that is the only relevant line. I am wondering what is the error message 
for error code -5?
I have tried many different port numbers, there is no difference to the result.

root@nwm:~/typhoonae# bin/supervisord
2010-02-22 12:24:56,193 CRIT Supervisor running as root (no user in config file)

Error: Cannot open an HTTP server: socket.error reported -5
For help, use bin/supervisord -h

This is really strange. I've tried to reproduce the problem on Debian Lenny. 
Except that memcached needed the -
u switch (can't run as root without the -u switch) everything worked quite 
flawlessly. Have you tried to run 
TyphoonAE with a user other than root?

Running as a different user results in the exact same error.

It is strange, because the HTTP server used to serve pages from the GAE app 
works fine, 
so I don't think it is an issue of network configuration.

The socket.error code -5 indicates that an I/O error occurred. I'm not sure why 
an when this happens. Can you 
reproduce the issue on another machine? You have successfully run TyphoonAE 
before, haven't you?

I have previously set up TyphoonAE successfully on two other machines.

The machine this error occurs on is actually a VPS hosted at http://vpslink.com/

I tried reformatting, same problem occurs, I am going to give a different 
distro a try 
now.

A very similar problem occurs under Debian 5.0, the only difference is that the 
error 
code is now -2.

Not reproducible.

Hello, 

I've faced this issue too and I have solved this configuring the 
'inet_http_server' section as following:

[inet_http_server]
port = 127.0.0.1:9001
username = test
password = test

Notice that in the 'port' parameter I have specificied the localhost address.

I hope this would be useful for you ;-)
