Error starting ORMI-Server. Unable to bind socket...

One of our BPEL App Servers was moved from a local network to a LAN. I believe it's IP was changed. When we start it with opmnctl startall we get the following error message:
bq. Error starting ORMI-Server. Unable to bind socket: Cannot assign requested address
There does not seem to be a resource issue with regard to ports. A netstat -p doesn't show any potential port conflicts. In a WEB search I came across the following suggested check:
bq. Solution: \\ *A) Check if your IP address or hostname is changed or if there is a conflict of resources in the network*
Can someone explain what needs to be fixed if the IP Address or hostname of the BPEL App Server has changed? What files need to be corrected to get the install to startup.

You may have another OC4J running on your computer.
You should change the port number in the file config/rmi.xml.

  • Error starting ORMI-Server.  Unable to bind socket: Address already in use:

    hi,
    I run the folowing command "start_oc4j.bat" to start Oc4j.
    It starts successfully.
    Then I start "BPEL PM Server".
    I get the following error,
    "Error starting ORMI-Server. Unable to bind socket: Address already in use: JVM_Bind".
    I understand the above errror because both of them are trying to bind to the same port. And both of them are trying to start ORMI server. Can some one suggest how to get rid of this problem.
    I tried giving different port numbers for them, but that did not work. Let me know, how to over come this problem.

  • Error starting ORMI-Server. Uable to bind socket

    Hi,
    I get the following error whenever I start my Application Server on Linux machine.
    If I deploy the EJB application onto a OC4J instance, the server is refusing the connection by throwing Connection Refused error.
    Any insight about this issue will be helpful.

    Hi Avi,
    of course you are right that the standalone OC4J ist not the same as an OC4J instance within the Oracle Application Server though from my point of view many J2EE-Server related questions or problems regarding the EJB- and or WEB-container could be answered/handled same or equally.
    That's why I'm a little bit irritated by your statement. From a forum user's perspective I'd hate it to follow eg all those Forms and Reports service discussions if I were a Java Developer or Deployer. So I would like to see all posts regarding the OC4J-Container here (no matter if standalone or inside OAS). Nevertheless everybody should clearly indicate the exact product version including the distinction beetween standalone and OAS.
    Just my 0.2 about this. What do others think?
    Avi, if you really want all discussion about OAS including OC4J topics to happen within the "Application Server - General" forum, I'd suggest you add a forum description which makes that clear.
    Well, if one can persuade you to not follow such a strict separation as I argued against, it could be still beneficial to add a meaningful forum description (eg. to remind people of the distinction between standalone OC4J and OAS.
    Thoughts?

    hi ramesh,
    this is sateesh. I only posted the above request
    before i found the solution. but with different
    trials i got that at last.
    --sateesh(TCS)Hi Sateesh,
    i'm using the Oracle 10g AS (9.0.4) on RedHat Linux 3.0 Advanced Server.
    I've formatted my machine, installed redhat and then 10g AS. There are no other softwares installed on my machine.
    After installation, I've created an Instace of OC4J server using IAS console, started the instance and got a message saying my instance has been started. But when i look at the log file in %ORACLE_HOME%/opmn/logs i got a message saying "Error starting ORMI-Server. Unable to bind socket: Address already in use".
    I've searched this forum for this and did all the kinds of modifications suggested by others and found no success. U said that u've tried other way and found the solution. Could you please help me out with the solution. I've tried stopping the default server instance being created at the time of 10 gAS installation. When i looked at the ports in use for the application server, its listing different ports for JMS, RMI and AJP but the same port for Oracle HTTP Server as 7778.
    P.S.: this is not only for sateesh, but for any one who could help me out with the solution.
    Please help me ASAP as its urgent for me and I've spent last 5 days for this.
    Any kind of help regarding this would be highly appreciated.

    Which version of Windows Vista? Bear in mind that Vista home edition is not supported by Oracle (I think for all products). If that is the case, you should be upgrading your OS to business or ultimate edition.
    If that is not the case, please get in touch with Oracle support. Not much is available on internet or in forums (as you seem to have posted this in Forms forum as well).

  • Cups - Unable to bind socket for address

    At first I must say, than CUPS is the bigger shit I have ever seen on Linux. I have configured many daemons like: Apache, Lighttpd, MySQL or dnsmasq. Everything always just work, but not CUPS. I have configured it for 15-20 times. I always need about 5-10 hours to run it, and I've never known why it started work - probably it is randomly like Windows
    Now, CUPS works fine on server, and I can print from laptop. But I've reinstalled Arch on PC. I've copied /etc/cups/ from laptop to PC, and now I can't start CUPS:

  • After applying BM3.8.5_ir1: "IKESetupSocket: Unable to bind socket!", IKE not loading

    Hello,
    I just applied the Interim Release 1 BM3.8.5 and rebootet the server after at
    least several months of uptime when the patch files were applied - so it might be
    related to 385_ir1; Or something went wrong during the last months of uptime that
    way; that a reboot just caused the trouble to be revealed.
    Well, on the next reboot after applying BM3.8.5_ir1 I got this on the IKE screen:
    -------------------------- IKE SCREEN ----------------------------------

    As it's a socket error I thought that applying the latest TCP patch might help
    out:
    TCP681K, another reboot, but no change at all.
    As IKE isn't loading server side all VNP functions are not operational.
    PKIDIAG is without errors, if these certificates should interact with IKE as well
    (I honestly have to state, that I don't know, if or if not these Certs interact
    with IKE ...)
    Anybody a quick solution? Otherwise I'll try to backrev to BM3.8.5 and the prior
    TCP version.
    Thanks for any input.

    Hello,
    after investigating in a totally wrong direction for many hours <doh!> I finally
    back-rev.ed the lib files from c:\nwserver\!backup.lib and
    sys:system\!backup.lib, after that was done the IKE had no trouble any more.
    In the load sequence of the server's reboot NMAS had a load error that pointed in
    that direction... (several DS*.NLMs in the LIB patch files)
    I have a looger screen save file of both, a "trouble boot" and a clean boot after
    removing the patch files. What I missed was to draw a config.txt of the trouble
    state. :(
    Quite interesting is the fact, that after may be 30 - 60 Minuntes of uptime the
    BM had difficulties to access the C: drive:
    ----------------------------Logger Screen ------------------------------------
    NetWare Configuration File Transfer Cache to DOS Error: 0x4
    Registry rolling back to last known good registry file.
    ----------------------------Logger Screen ------------------------------------
    Then no NLMs could be loaded any more at all: Neither DOS side, nor sys:system or
    from anywhere else. Funny fact: With the already loaded toolbox a "DIR" was
    presenting everything absolutely normal, DOS and SYS: side....
    Well, the NBM-Rule-Container is restored now from tape, the filters.txt is as it
    was before (seveal reboots) and with my 2nd. BM install I was painfully
    remembered that there can be just one BM per container <grrr> ;) (nice design...)
    Patches applied when the trouble showed up
    NW6.5SP6
    BM3.8SP5
    plus the hotfixes available till Dec 2007
    Finally I applied these (many hours ago >-O~ )
    LIBCSP6B
    NWLIB6K
    WSOCK6N
    TCP681K
    BM3.8.5_ir1
    .... in the timed order they were given to the public (I didn't check right now,
    the order above isn't necessarily the right order I used.)
    If someone should be interested in the logger.txt of both states, they are too
    large for *one* posting here, drop me an email.

    A similar problem was fixed in Rel 9.0.2 by changing the Host Name of the embedded OC4J server to localhost from the IP address.
    Would appreciate some help because we would like to take advantage of the new features in your product.

  • Error starting HTTP-Server: Address in use: JVM_Bind

    I installed J2ee version of Oracle9iAS R2 for windows. When I start my application server, I always get the error "Error starting HTTP-Server: Address in use: JVM_Bind". In the previous version, if I met this message, I can change the port number in "http-web-site.xml", but now, no matter what port number I changed, I always get this error message.
    Could anybody please help me with this issue?
    Can Oracle provides a tool that can automatically free the port?
    Thanks, Jessie

    If you are getting this error while starting the Oracle9iAS by using the NT services or using command line (dcmctl) then there is a port conflict for the HTTP Server. You can go the EM Website and select HTTP Server ->Server properties and select the port# for the HTTP Server.
    OC4J is configured to listen for AJP requests only and the ports are dynamically assigned. The port ranges can be specified : OC4J Instance -> Server Properties

  • Error starting HTTP-Server: Cannot assign requested address: JVM_Bind

    Hi.
    Anyone know how to configure the Oracle HTTP server within Jdeveloper9i to work?
    When I try run a JSP page, I get the following error:
    C:\Oracle9iDS\jdk\bin\javaw.exe -ojvm -classpath C:\Oracle9iDS\j2ee\home\oc4j.jar com.evermind.server.OC4JServer -config C:\Oracle9iDS\jdev\system\oc4j-config\server.xml
    [Starting OC4J using the following ports: HTTP=8888, RMI=23891, JMS=9227.]
    [waiting for the server to complete its initialization...]
    Error starting HTTP-Server: Cannot assign requested address: JVM_Bind

    cheers paul

    A JVM_Bind error means that the port is already in use. This is an unusual error message to get because JDev scans the ports ahead of time to make sure they are free before launching the server.
    Check if you have any processes running that might be holding port 8888. There might be a previous instance of the OC4J server running that hasn't released port 8888 yet. On Windows, at a command prompt, you can use "netstat -a" to see local ports that are in use.
