I'm fairly new to Twisted and trying to get a twisted reactor to work with wxPython. I'm trying the perspective broker examples, and when I try to do: def OnFileitems0Menu(self, event): self.Close(true) reactor.stop()

It shuts down the program fine, but then when I try to run it again I get:

twisted.internet.error.CannotListenError: Couldn't listen on any:8800: (10048, 'Address already in use').

As an error. I can manually stop the process and then it will work again, but I don't know how to release the port when I shut down the program.

Am I missing something obvious? A search of the archives hasn't shown me any way out.

You are probably missing the existing (now broken) connections waiting for timeout, as shown by "netstat -tn". Shut down the clients cleanly, or just wait for the timeout.
