No active mode any more, everyone else in network is able to load

Asked by Stefan S

Hey community,
I was able to use DC++ for about 1 month without any problems.
From one to the next day it only sets up the passive mode with the error:
"Local network with possible NAT detected, trying to map the ports...
Port mapping: Failed to map the Transfer port (59341 TCP) with the NAT-PMP interface
Port mapping: Failed to initalize the MiniUPnP interface
Port mapping: Failed to map the Transfer port (59341 TCP) with the Windows UPnP interface
Port mapping: Failed to create port mappings
Active mode could not be achieved; a manual configuration is recommended for better connectivity"

Since every one else in the network is still able to use DC++ it seems to be a local problem.
I use win 7 x64 and tried the UPnP Test Program which is recommended on many web links.

The output acknowledges my suggestion:
"TEST 1 - Operating System Support - PASSED
TEST 2 - SSDP Service Running Check - FAILED
TEST 3 - SSDP Service Automatic Check - FAILED
TEST 4 - UPnPHost Service Running Check - FAILED
TEST 5 - UPnPHost Service Automatic Check - FAILED
TEST 6 - UPnP Framework Firewall Exception Check - PASSED
TEST 7 - Adapter #0 - 192.168.48.1 - FAILED
TEST 8 - Get External IP Address - FAILED
TEST 7 - Adapter #1 - 10.12.169.8 - FAILED
TEST 8 - Get External IP Address - FAILED"

But the SSDP and UPnPHost Services are automatic on my system and are running. Furthermore is DC++ added to my Firewall, respectively I even deactivated it without any advantage.

Is there a way to figure out which program blocks or uses a service?

It seems that this happend after I installed Visual Studio 2010 Pro complete, so maybe some SQL Server or whatever could possibly block the services?!

Thanks for your help in advance!

MiniUPnPc (which looks to be failed as well) is a standalone interface that doesn't need SSDP and UPnPHost Services. This means that your UPnP device is either not accessible not responding (restart the device?)...
http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net/webhelp/faq_unblock.html may give you hints about what more to check.

If it still does not want to work you may spend less time if you try to forward your ports manually...

Can you help with this problem?
