Dec 14, 2018 at 3:17 comment added SlySven Sorry if this sounds flippant but it does look as though it has something to do with the systemd setup - I use the older (non-standard these days) sysV init to run my own daemon from that setup's /erc/rc.local that spawns a separate pigpiod thread - and from what I recall of @joan 's pigpio library it used to (I am not sure that it used the same mechanism nowadays) check that there is only one instance running by looking for a /run/pigpiod.pid file - but if it crashed previously that file might still be around and be preventing a new instance from starting...

Added systemd tag because issue does seem to be related to that (default) init system
