Uninstall leaves the old Zeus server behind

Openfire Openfire Support

My openfire install got screwed up on OpenSUSE Leap, which I had installed using the rpm, so I uninstalled it.

I reinstalled it using the Yast2 Software Manager, which put it in /usr/share/openfire. However, port 9090 was still blocked by the previous Zeus server, even after a reboot. I moved the admin port on the new installation to 8090, and the new Openfire works. But now I cannot use port 9090 for anything:

So zeus-admin is still listening on the old 9090 port. How do I get my port back?

If I go to port 9090, I get weird stuff:

My Squeezebox server is on port 9000, NOT 9090.

From what i have gathered from the Google search nmap is calling anything listening on 9090 port “zeus-admin”, because it was a common service running on that port. Like 6 years ago. The string that you get by going to that port contains “Squeezebox”, so maybe your Squeezebox is listening on 9090 additionally.

You are probably right about the name. But the 9090 port was used by the origional openfire installation, and I would like to get it back for the new installation. Google told me that zeus was the embedded web server used by Openfire.

Weird. It IS squeezeboxserver listening on that port. It is perl. I killed the process, and squeezeboxserver died.

I’ve seen that comment on the Stackoverflow, but that’s wrong. This is what nmap is telling. Openfire uses Jetty as a web server for Admin Console and there is no Zeus in it. It is just using the same port as Zeus was using.
