I'm running into this issue right now. I've checked the passwords, database is running correctly from what I can tell as I've added a username and password and it's the same in the miner, but in PuTTY this is what I see after setting everything up. Any suggestions? I'm confused on why it's connecting, but then changing ports every couple of seconds or less and not running.
If you need some more specifics on the .json file or the .conf for BitcoinD I can put that up there, but if it's connecting I don't think those two are the issue as they are running. I have a feeling it's somehow with the database, but it's beyond me at this point on why it's repeating.

I have a bunch of dedicated servers I'm attempting to setup for the Bitcoin public which I'm hoping to just make enough to pay the bills for it to run, not looking to make a fortune.. I love the idea behind Bitcoins, but obviously I'm not going to throw my money out there forever and pay for it completely free, so hoping this gains some ground to at least pay for the server bills!
Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I've also been reading about this subject and Google'ing for hours now, I've had to get a few beers to help filter through all of this! So much appreciation to the person who helps fix it. In fact, as a promise whoever does help me gets the first 10 BTC I get.

-- I've also put Xenforo on a server for our forums, so as you can tell I'm not messing about, I really want to get this up and running and if you'd like to join me send me a message!

EDIT 2: Also, the user I'm running this under is not root, I just put root@server just for the scenario.
