pure-ftpd - upnpd: Unknown soap method

as of yesterday, I am suddenly seeing a message in syslog, about once every 2-3 minutes:

upnpd(eth0)[2443]: Unknown soap method


After stopping a lot of services, I have finally narrowed it down to pure-ftpd being the cause of the problem. Anyone have any ideas how pure-ftpd might be causing this? its filling up my syslog with this useless warning

  • Do you have any DLNA services enabled?I'm not familiar with Pure-ftpd,but I suspect this log came from UPNP daemon.
  • yes the message says on there upnpd is causing the message. The message goes away when I stop pure-ftpd. I have Plex running but when I removed it completely, the message still kept coming until I stopped pure-ftpd.
