Hi everyone,

I have a cluster setup for bro 2.5.  
After a while, broctl shows all instances are running (workers,proxies and manager) , yet no new log files are written to spool/manager.

broctl cron is enabled, and when I tried to run broctl print Drop::drop\_info I get :  
manager Drop::drop\_info =   
worker-0-2 \<error: cannot connect to [127.0.0.1:1234](http://127.0.0.1:1234)\>

any thoughts on the reason for that ?  
how can I recover from this besides restarting in response to monitoring new log files ?

Thank you  
B
