Pipe Error and Asterisk Manager Password Change Errors

General Help
1

Hi everyone!

I have been getting the following errors that I have not been able to track down. I have seen them now on multiple builds, on multiple versions of asterisk/freepbx, and in both the Freepbx (current) and PIAF distros after upgrading. I’ve spent hours(days really) searching for a way to correct these or at least find out what they are, as I feel something is broken after the upgrades.
Currently I am testing on:
Freepbx Distro: Started at FreePBX Distro 2.210.62-5 (Asterisk 10) i386
Currently upgraded to:
Asterisk: Ver. 11.3.0 (seen on Asterisk 8&10 as well)
Centos: CentOS release 6.2
FreePBX: 2.11.0.10 (Seen on upgrade from 2.9 to 2.11 and from 2.10 to 2.11)

1.) Main concern- Constant flow of the broken pipe errors in the asterisk logs, they a nonstop:

[2013-08-03 22:58:03] ERROR[5518]: utils.c:1297 ast_careful_fwrite: fwrite() returned error: Broken pipe
[2013-08-03 22:58:03] ERROR[5518]: utils.c:1297 ast_careful_fwrite: fwrite() returned error: Broken pipe

2.) If I go and change the Asterisk Manager Password through Settings/Advanced Settings. Not only do I lose access to parking lots scripts etc, and have received retrieve_conf failed in the GUI, but I am seeing the following in the asterisk logs:
[2013-08-03 22:47:50] WARNING[5313]: security_events.c:566 add_ie: Required IE ‘50’ for security event type ‘12’ not present
[2013-08-03 22:47:50] NOTICE[5313]: manager.c:2589 authenticate: 127.0.0.1 failed to authenticate as ‘admin’

== Connect attempt from ‘127.0.0.1’ unable to authenticate

Any help would be appreciated, especially with the pipe errors and I am happy to provide any further information.

Thanks!

I brought up a Linode instance this morning to test this on another system. On a clean Centos 6.4 install using the script found at http://wiki.freepbx.org/display/FD/Converting+Stock+Centos+to+a+FreePBX+Distro. I am seeing the same broken pipe multiple times a second.

[2013-08-04 09:18:07] ERROR[3367]: utils.c:1279 ast_careful_fwrite: fwrite() returned error: Broken pipe [2013-08-04 09:18:12] ERROR[3368]: utils.c:1279 ast_careful_fwrite: fwrite() returned error: Broken pipe [2013-08-04 09:18:18] ERROR[3369]: utils.c:1279 ast_careful_fwrite: fwrite() returned error: Broken pipe [2013-08-04 09:18:23] ERROR[3370]: utils.c:1279 ast_careful_fwrite: fwrite() returned error: Broken pipe [2013-08-04 09:18:29] ERROR[3371]: utils.c:1279 ast_careful_fwrite: fwrite() returned error: Broken pipe [2013-08-04 09:18:34] ERROR[3372]: utils.c:1279 ast_careful_fwrite: fwrite() returned error: Broken pipe

Is there anywhere I can start looking to see if this is an issue to be concerned with or not?
