Dnsmasq stops after random periods of time

I have had dnsmasq running my localhost adblock since over a year and everything was working fine. However, since several weeks, I noticed that it just stops working after random periods of time.
I was unable to identify any error, and it starts just fine if I run it after it quits, but after several hours it quits again. Here's systemctl status dnsmasq output:

Just as an update to the above, the same problem occurs in safe mode?

  • Internet failing after random period of time on 4S, no matter what I do.

    iPhone 4S on EE shows full signal and 3G connection yet internet stops working after 5-30 minutes, works again with restarts or if I turn airplane mode on/off.
    Phoned EE help multiple times:
    Tried resetting network settings, worked to begin with then dropped out again (3G signal never drops though)
    They changed some things their end, same results
    Same again
    Tried a full restore from backup, same result
    Tried a full restore from new, same result
    Has this happened to anyone before? I have no idea what to try other than a new sim card (which EE said could not be the issue), or resort to having Apple replace the phone (I'm in warranty by 30 days thankfully)

  • Mail stops receiving messages after a period of time

    Every since installing Mavericks my Mail app stops receiving messages after a period of time. I know because I get the email on my phone, but I try to grab them in Mail and nothing. If I restart Mail then they come through.
    I'm using Gmail as my email provider. Is anyone else suffering with this? Is there a work around?

    Workaround or not, this is an annoyance, and that's a nice way of putting it. Coming from Mountain Lion, when Mail was working flawlessly, having to deal with this issue is just plain ridiculous. What happened to the Mail application? I don't understand how Apple could screw this up to badly.
    Every time I restart or reset the connection to the servers, the Mail app is downloading thousands of messages (I can see the display on the bottom-left). I have no idea what it's doing or why, for that matter. If Apple doesn't fix this soon, I will seriously be forced to look for an alternative, which saddens me greatly. I really like Mail, but if it cannot reliably get my mail simply because I've left it open too long, or hidden it behind another window, I will stop using it.
    What's worse is that I've had similar issues with other applications like iPhoto and iTunes. Whatever is happening to Mail is probably not just application-specific. It's probably OS-specific. I hope Apple is working on it and that we will see a major update to Mavericks soon. All I know is that, right now, I'm seriously regretting upgrading to Mavericks.

  • Why does my iPad mini stop responding to wifi after a period of time?

    Why does my iPad mini stop responding to wifi after a period of time?
    For example, I can connect to wifi and use Safari and my iPad's interet capabilities with no problem. But if I then leave my iPad alone for an hour - when I go back to using it, it still shows as being connected to the wifi, but is unresponsive - i.e. web pages will not load etc. - I have to disconnect and reconnect to the wifi to make it responsive.
    In advance, thanks

    Try #5
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Firefox stops working properly after a period of time

    btw, I can't type in this box. I'm typing this in another program and pasting it in.
    Using Firefox 5. I just installed Lion yesterday for Mac, but this problem occurred even before I did so. After a period of time, FF stops working properly. I notice it when I try to open a new tab. It won't switch to the new tab and the screen turns blue. If I type in a web address, it looks like it tries to go there, but it doesn't. When I look at any other already open tab, it has the blue screen. I have to restart to get my proper web pages back.

    Whenever I click on "More System Details" there are several things I hope I won't see. Your Conduit Engine is one of them. It is malware by any reasonable definition and a cause of major problems with Firefox.
    Google for information and advice as to how to get rid of it. Someone may come along with more specific advice..
    If things aren't perfect after that you could do some straightforward troubleshooting(Safe Mode, Problematic Extensions, Hardware Acceleration etc) - in default theme -

  • Photoshop CS6 stops working after a period of time

    Hi,
    I'm having a very frustrating issue with Photoshop CS6. When starting up my Pc or notebook it works just fine and I can open images and create new documents.
    After a period of time (unknown) I can no longer open images or create new documents. There are no error messages appearing at all.
    I have contacted support and to date nothing has worked to resolve this.
    I have un-installed and re-installed Photoshop. I have tried running it without loading preferences etc.
    The application is up to date as is my operating system.
    This is affecting Photoshop on 2 separate installs, my PC and notebook
    Any ideas?
    Running Windows 7
    Cheers
    George

    But this is happening on two different machines, a work notebook and my home PC... surely not the issue?
    Cheers

  • A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time

    Prior to the Increase Capacity for Outbound Network Calls update, my Azure websites running in
    Standard mode experienced occasional connection attempt failed errors. Since this update the errors stopped but starting on 12/30/14, these errors started up again on both
    South Central and East regions:
    "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond [IP]:80"
    It occurs when attempting to consume an external web service over HTTP. This issue is not reproducible on our local environments nor did it occur with our previous shared hosting provider.
    On Azure, the same web service call can result in this error or will return a response successfully.
    There doesn't appear to be any pattern as to why the same call would work one time but not another.
    How can this be resolved again? Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi,
    Please have a look at this article:

    it gives us several ways to solve this issue, hope this helps.

  • Why is Logic Express 8 keep stopping after 2 sec, every time I press play? Help!!!

    Why is Logic Express 8 keep stopping after 2 sec, every time I press play? Help!!!

    Its likely to be caused by Ozone5.. many people have reported that plugin is currently quite unstable and are awaiting updates from izotope to fix the problem... No ETA has been given by izotope for the fix however...
    Also several of your plugins are out of date (Zebra2, Clariphonic, Ozone itself.. to name but a few,)
    Finally, you are running an older version of Logic Pro X (10.0.3)...and  I would normally suggest you update to the latest version  but... if you have a USB2 audio interface do not update to 10.0.5 at this time.... unless you know it will work correctly with the new version of LPX.

  • Just downloaded the 7.1 IOS update and I'm able to stream my music from the cloud. Does this use up data and how can I get it to stop pausing for periods of time?

    Just downloaded the 7.1.1 IOS update and I'm able to stream my music from the cloud. I'm wondering how I can stream more than just my purchased music?And does this use up data? Also, how can I get playback to stop pausing for periods of time? It is a wifi thing??

    If streaming music when connected to your carrier's cellular network, it uses cellular data.
    Only the music you purchased from the iTunes Store can be streamed unless you have purchased iTunes Match.
    If there is a slow down at the server where the music is stored or high traffic, steaming can be paused. You can also download a song from the iTunes Store cloud to your iPhone so it doesn't need to be steamed.

  • Is it possible to have the cellular data switch turn off after a period of time. I would like to minimize the data usage, but often forget to turn off the cellular switch once I have returned to wifi coverage.

    My new iPhone 6+ seems to eat up data at a faster rate than my iPhone 4.  I was advised that turning off cellular data when I am at home or work where I have wifi will keep my cellular data usage to a minimum.  But I have found that I frequently forget to turn it off the cellular once I have finished a task where I needed it. Is there a way to have it turn itself off automatically after a period of time? Thanks

    No, you will have to manually do it.
    Have you look into putting your phone in airplane mode and then connect to wifi.

  • Tour shuts down after a period of time have to plug into charger for reboot

    Today I noticed that my phone will shut off after a little while of inactivity.  The battery will be mostly full, and it thinks it dies.  So inorder to reboot you must plug it into the charger.  Once you plug it into the charger you get the image of the battery with a bolt in the middle of the screen.  After a few minutes of charging it resets to the home screen, and after another period of time it will do it again.  You might think this is occurring because the battery is dead but the battery will be 50% maybe a little more or a little less.  I am wondering if this is an OS problem or something that is just wrong with my phone...

    That definitely sounds like a phone issue.  We had a user with a similar problem that ended up getting her phone replaced.  She hasn't had any issues since. 

  • Rmiregistry shutdown after a period of time!

    I binded a remote service to the rmiregistry,and start the rmiregistry using a seprate .sh file (not start in the program). I found the rmiregistry will shutdown and exit after a period of time when there're no calls made to the remote service binded.
    It seems that if no calls were made to the remote service, after some time interval, the GDC will collect the remote service, and when there're not a single binded remote service that were not GDCed. the rmiregistry will exit.
    Is my opinion right or not? and what can i do to solve the problem?

    He means me, but I don't have a better answer, except maybe this. Does your .sh script by any chance say
    rmiregistry &If so change it to this:
    exec rmiregistry &The latter is better, because it won't exit when the shell that started it exits, but this is a Unix issue not a Java issue.

  • Lag after a period of time

    Hi,
    I've recently purchased Photoshop CS5.1 and I've noticed an issue. After working for a period of time (5-10 minutes), when I try to move an item/layer, or when I want to use the move tool, I have a 1-2 second lag between the time I initiate the action and the actual screen result.
    One thing I've discovered is that the Timing info grows in time reaching 140s sometimes. The higher this is the more the lag.
    I have no problems with hdd space for scratch disks and I have no installed plugins. One way to fix this issue is to restart PS, but it doesn't seem to be a viable solution. The problem also remains when I have OpenGL checked. I used to work with CS3 and this issue never occured.
    Anyone else had this issue ? Thanks in advance.
    My system:
    OS: XP SP3
    CPU: Intel i5-2400
    GPU: Gigabyte 550Ti Gtx 1Gb
    RAM: 4Gb

    I have new information regarding my issue. It happens each time I start to work. This delay appears only when I click on the canvas to perform an action. It's most visible when I try to use the Hand tool to pan the canvas, I click to move but there's a slight delay before the actual screen result. This delay increases in time, even though I don't work and just leave Photoshop alone. After a period of time this delay disappears and everything is back to normal.
    Also, if a try to pan the canvas using the scroll wheel everything is fine. Also, no problems when I try to zoom in or out. I've tried different scratch disk locations, different performance settings with no success. I've tried to close third party applications, in case something would have interfered with PS, and nothing. Is there a way to monitor the mouse input to see what happens when I click the canvas to execute an action ?
    Anyone ?

  • After short period of time my messages are disappearing from my Icloud mail account.Why does it happen?Can I restore them back?

    I can't understand my Icloud mail behavior.All messages I sent are stored in sent box as usual whereas messages I receive are disappearing after short period of time (no more then 2 weeks).Why does it happen?Do I have any chance to restore them?
