Bug Description

The call of reactor.listenMulticast in [https://core.fluendo.com/elisa/trac/browser/trunk/extern/upnp/ssdp.py#L38 upnp/ssdp.py] reserves the socket exclusively, resulting in failure of other upnp software on the same system, e.g. a media server.[[BR]]
Or failure of whatever is using the ssdp.py module, if another ssdp server is running already.

Changing this to

port = reactor.listenMulticast(SSDP_PORT, self, listenMultiple=True)

will solve this issue.

Ciao,[[BR]]
