Java Exception when attempt to start the SNMP agent

Question

Hi,
I require to start the SNMP agent in Solaris 2.6 running Web Logic 5.1. Upon entering
the command :
$ java weblogic.SNMPAgent, it is asking me for the password , and I gave the same.
The system is
generating a Java Exception given below:
Exception in thread "main" com.adventnet.snmp.snmp2.agent.AgentRuntimeException:

Given below is the file <startSNMPAgent.sh> and it's central contents:
$JAVA weblogic.SNMPAgent -password pbgst -serverURLs t3://localhost:7001 -trap
Destinations localhost:162
The classpath settings are correct and as per documentation.
There are SNMP agents also running in the machine which have been started by default
by Solaris,
doing a ps -ef | grep snmp shows:
root 556 1 0 Jun 23 ? 0:00 /usr/lib/dmi/snmpXdmid -s sunhyd01
root 516 1 0 Jun 23 ? 0:00 /usr/lib/snmp/snmpdx -y -c /etc/snmp/conf
pbgst 28090 25879 0 17:01:37 pts/32 0:00 grep snmp
I tried to start the SNMP agent on a diff. port and specified the same in the
.sh file and also changed the
trap Destinations port ---- it still generates the same exception.
Please do try to resolve this problem for me, as the project is in production
phase.
Thanks for all help beforehand.

Hello,
way back we had the same problem and the reason was, that the path
names with the server instances were to long
(/opt/wlsroot/wlsInstances/axsExpert.SwissAir/S_243_7001 ->
/opt/wlsroot/wlsInstances/axsExpert.SAir/S_243_7001). But this was
with WLS 5.1 SP8.

Hello Michel,
Thanks for the reply. As you may have noticed, that the SNMP agents which are
already running, the owner is <root>. These services are required and I do not
have or I can not obtain the password to start/stop the same. As such, the only
option which I have is to start the weblogic-specific SNMP service in a different
port. Question: In the parameters, I specified : <snmpPort 1600 trace Destinations
1601> I am still getting the same error. What else is required and/or how do I
proceed to start the same service?
Thanks for your help beforehand,

It looks like another SNMP agent has already bound to the port.
