DNSServer Error (already in use) - not all the time

$

Hi there,

I've installed the Plex Media Server on my mac, everything works awesome CERTAIN TIMES, not always.

 

My apple tv has dynamic IP but static DNS (which is the IP of my mac, where is located the server, so 192.168.1.6);

My mac is set on a static IP, same as aTV static DNS, so 192.168.1.6 as well.

 

I don't understand why sometimes everything works, and other times it doesn't.

 

I paste into terminal the right string which opens PlexConnect.py, and sometimes the terminal give me an error:

 

 

21:06:35 DNSServer: Failed to create socket on UDP port 53: [Errno 48] Address already in use

21:06:35 PlexConnect: DNSServer not alive. Shutting down.

 

 

I usually can't fix it, but more importantly I don't know the reason of that error, since I don't run other servers, the ip is always the same on my mac, and I don't know how to disable that existing dns "already in use". Basically, 2 times on 10 I have that error, the other time it's all working properly.

 

Anyone could help me? maybe it's something wrong with my wifi settings or plex's files.
