[Buildbot-devel] Buildslave will not start ...

[Kiffin Gish]

For some reason when I try to start buildslave, it gets stuck in an
endless retry loop, and remains unreachable by buildbot (see below).

This is very strange because I've got it running standalone on two other
'identical' machines no problem.

I seem to remember having a similar problem in the past, but I cannot
remember how I solved it.

Might there be problems with binding to the port? Can I set the twisted
log level to debug?

# buildbot --version
Buildbot version: 0.7.11p3
Twisted version: 8.2.0

Please please help, me I'm desperate.
