Media Monitor Erratic in 2.3.1

    I recently upgraded from 2.2 to 2.3.1 on Debian squeeze. Ever since we upgraded media monitor just stops running, even though if you ask airtime-check-system it is says its running fine with a process id. When I restart (sudo service airtime-media-monitor restart) media monitor it picks back up again and imports all the pending files. Checking /var/log/airtime/media_monitor/media_monitor.log there isn't anything weird and certainly there are no errors. 

     Has something changed with the media monitor in this version? currently I need to restart media monitor daily.

     Is anyone having similar issues? 

    Thanks
    Alex

    Could you please check the rabbitmq section in both /etc/airtime/airtime.conf and /etc/airtime/media-monitor.cfg? I'm guessing the rabbitmq settings do not equal in both files.

    Hey cliff thanks for the response. 

    They are slightly different, but not really, 127.0.0.1 should equal localhost in this case. 

    another clu
    sudo service airtime-media-monitor restart yields:
    Restarting Airtime Media Monitor: start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 23563: No such process
    Done.


    media monitor.cfg :

    ############################################
    # RabbitMQ settings                        #
    ############################################
    rabbitmq_host = 'localhost'
    rabbitmq_user = 'guest'
    rabbitmq_password = 'guest'
    rabbitmq_vhost = '/'

    airtime.conf
    [rabbitmq]
    host = 127.0.0.1
    port = 5672
    user = guest
    password = guest
    vhost = /

    I just found that on mine (2.4) it DOES matter. I changed rabbitmq_host from 'localhost' to 127.0.0.1 and the errors went went away.
    rabbitmq_host = 'localhost'

    This was useful... I think. Changed so that the rabbitmq_host is 127.0.0.1 and we'll see how it goes... Thanks John!

    I'm running 2.5.1 on Ubuntu 12.04.  I recently migrated the Ubuntu instance to KVM.  Since then, I have had to keep restarting media monitor in order for uploaded files to appear in the library.  I tried the above suggestion of setting rabbitmq_host is 127.0.0.1 and restarted, but the problem still persists.  I've included my media-monitor log file.  Thanks.
