Rmiregistry: Port already in use error

Hi,
I'm running the following comand to start a registry service listening on port 1099. I'll start and stop it several times with control-C and everything will work fine but if I do this a few times, it will get to the point that when I try to start it again I get a message
saying the port is already in use(but I killed the service). Is there a way to start and stop the rmiregistry several times without it getting hung? I'm sure if you get into a production issue with this you need a way to get around it? Besides using the proper command, what can you do to free up a port? Note, I also noticed that netstat shows multiple entries listening on port 1099! Was this from re-trying the command when it failed or from the times that it was successful? Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter

I have exactly the same problem. At first it was happening with the use of the "rmiregistry" command, but now my code creates the registry using registry = LocateRegistry.createRegistry(port) and I end up with the same problem.
I too end up with (typically) 3 listening sockets (as reported by netstat), that don't seem to be owned by any processes. So without a process to kill, the only way to get rid of them is to reboot.

Port already in use Error right after applying Patch 1 for Coherence 3.6

I'm having an issue with Patch1 of Coherence 3.6. I am not able to start two DefaultCacheServer instances. Its giving me the following error when I try load the 2nd one.

It looks to me something to do with ExtendTcpProxyService. I have that hardcoded to go to 9095.
Do you have any work around for this issue?

I am seeing a similar problem (not sure if 3.6.01 related since I have only tried with this release yet - I always run on the bleeding edge on my dev machine).
If I do NOT specify tangosol.coherence.localport explicitly I get a message that 8088 is in use. If I understand things right should not Coherent try to increment the port number (I have even tried seting tangosol.coherence.localport.adjust to true explicitly) but this does not seem to happen.
It gets even stranger since when I run the Windows command that checks for open ports 8088 is not listed as in use....
The same thing happen if I specify 8088 explicitly (still no auto increment).
If I however explicitly specify another free port (say 8089) it works...
Really strange...

Tomcat Servlet - TCP Port Already in Use?

My problem is that tomcat/servlet is not releasing its TCP port after my servlet closes the port. Next time a servlet tries to use the port it gets an error "Port already in use". Using netstat I can see the port is still in use. If I stop tomcat and restart it, the port is released. I have not had this sort of problem writing C programs that use sockets.
My setup is Fedora Core 6 with JDK1.5_14 and Tomcat 5.5.26. I know it's not the latest, but sockets and streams have been around for a long time.
Actual implementation uses a trivial javaserver page to instantiate a class to create/accept connection from a client (JApplet). After connection, it starts a thread to receive data. I am using ServerSocket(), InputStreamReader(), and OutputStreamWriter(). On ServerSocket I set ReuseAddress to true.
I have try/catch on all my I/O and use tomcat context log for error and OK messages. Data transfer is perfect. Detect close by client works. In the context log I see close of streams and ServerSocket occur with no exceptions. Then, I manually close the jsp window. No indication of any problems. If I use different port 2nd time (e.g. 50001) it all works perfect. If I use my default (50000) again, servlet gets an error during bind, "Port already in use".

Actual implementation uses a trivial javaserver page to instantiate a class to create/accept connection from a client (JApplet). Bleah! Don't use a JSP for that. Use a servlet at worst. At best use a Servlet to start some other socket manager class which you can/have tested outside the Servlet Container environment.

In the context log I see close of streams and ServerSocket occur with no exceptions. Then, I manually close the jsp window. Closing the browser window has no affect on the server.
No indication of any problems. If I use different port 2nd time (e.g. 50001) it all works perfect. If I use my default (50000) again, servlet gets an error during bind, "Port already in use".

Please advise or referShow some code. If you just want some generic advice it would be to close the port, as soon as you don't need it anymore. But you know that. Without any further code I think that is about all that can be said.
P.S. Make the code as small as possible, compilable, but still demonstrating the problem. Also see: [this tutorial as an example...|http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-1996/jw-12-sockets.html?page=1]

Sun would like your help with the "System Name Already In Use" error

A couple of users have reported getting an erroneous "System Name Already in Use" error when re-registering a system after a fresh Solaris re-install. We'd like your help in tracking down this problem.
The scenario is this:
* Install Solaris 10 and register with updatemanager,
* Wipe out the installation and re-install Solaris.
* re-register with updatemanager.
The system erroneously reports that the system name is already in use. It is supposed to detect a duplicate registration of the same system.
We have not been able to reproduce this error in our lab.
If this has happened to you, would you let us know at [email protected]?
Here are the things that we would like to ask of you:
* If you run "updatemanager -debug" if will create a log file /tmp/basicreg<timestamp>.log.
* Details on the exact hardware you have (make/model/configuration).
* Details on the steps you took to get to the bad state. REALLY detailed!
Thanks!
Based on what we know now, we believe you can work around the issue by either:
* Changing the host name and re-registering.
* Creating a different user account and registering the host to that account.
Some previously-posted workarounds are known NOT to work:
* Wait 24 hours and try again.
* Do some "ccr" incantations and try again.

Hi,
Can you drop me an email as i am a sun employee and i will be able to check if the swup frontline team have received any support cases on this issue and then we can work with you directly to resolve the issue.

10.6.8 Server w/ 10.9.2 clients "Backup disk is already in use" error

I have an Xserve running 10.6.8 serving as a Time Machine destination for the office. All of the clients are running newer OSes, mostly 10.9.2. Since the 10.9.2 update, my clients frequently receive the "Backup disk is already in use" error when they attempt to backup. Looking at Server Admin, I can see that clients reporting the error have an idled AFP session. Disconnecting the session in Server Admin will fix the issue for a day or two. I've tried using the "disconnect idle users after x interval" option for AFP with no luck. Has anyone else been experiencing this issue?

I am also having the same issue! If I kill off the disabled/sleep connection, backups work.

InD blocking Ps to save a file / Could not save * because the file is already in use error

Many users have reported a Photoshop Could not save * because the file is already in use error in many different circumstances.
I place raw jpgs in InDesign document, then open them in Photoshop via Edit original order to adjust them. On random occasions Ps gives me that annoying error. So i found a little trick to avoid saving that image under a different name and relinking it plus reloading Ps since the error repeats on other pictures to.
All you have to do is: when Ps gives error, (Cmd-Tab) switch to InD, directly select the worked jpg in image frame (one that you try to save in Ps) and simply move it left-right (or move it and Undo). Now you can save it without problem.

JPEG is a "lossy" compression format. Every time you save as jpeg you recompress and throw away a little more information. In addition, jpeg does not support transparency or layers, both very useful features for woring with images. For example, you can add an adjustment layer in Photoshop to do your adjustments non-destructively for may of the things that you can do using Image > Adjustments... which will change your pixel data permanently. Throw away an adjustment layer and you image data is untouched. Also, ID allows you to place a layered image and control layer visibility from within ID, making it possible to multi-purpose a single file by showing or hiding various layers.

"The backup disk image 'Volumes...sparsebundle' is already in use" error message

Since upgrading to Lion, I seem to be able to back up my MacBook over Wi-fi to an external hard drive attached to my Airport Extreme just fine. However, if Time Machine is in the middle of a backup and I interrupt it by closing my MacBook hence putting it to sleep, next time my MacBook attempts a backup I get the message "This backup disk image "/Volumes....Macbook.sparsebundle" is already in use. I've tried disconnecting all users from the hard drive in the Airport Utility, and then unplugging the hard drive and plugging it back in, and then it seems to backup fine, until I interrupt another backup, then the problem starts all over again.
I never had this problem before upgrading to Lion. Suggestions?

NateCook, I'm experiencing the exact same issue. I'd previously been enjoying how seamless Time Machine worked, wirelessly and automatically, to backup my MacBook Pro to a 2 TB drive attached to my Airport Extreme. I also liked that I had the flexibility to plug that drive directly to my Mac, via FW800 or USB 2.0, if I needed to. It would always work too, regardless of whether or not I interrupted a backup in progress. Now, with Lion, I'm constantly getting the same "This backup disk image "/Volumes....Macintosh.sparsebundle is already in use" error. I fix it by restarting the Airport Extreme but that's a pain in the butt to have to do all the time.
Can you verify whether or not the recent OS X 1.0.7.1 update helps fix this in any way? Or is the situation the same for you?
I'm loathe to "give in" and buy a Time Capsule to replace this setup, but I will if I have to... I want everything to work like it did before and I'm not willing to downgrade fom Lion back to Snow Leopard over this. I was hoping Apple would fix it properly, but since this isn't a "supported configuration" (even though we know full well it works just fine) I was afraid Apple wouldn't focus on this as a priority.
I'm also a bit fearful that the same issue will occur with a Time Capsule.. hmm... my hunch is I'll be finding out soon enough.

Soap port already in use (856B) GW 703

Anyone run into this problem where if you have multiple POA's on single server and if you enable SOAP to use default port of 7191 on both POA's, one or other POA complains about "soap port already in use (856B)" and shuts down that POA.
BES doesn't seem to have option for add'l port number assignments? Or is there a workaround to allow both POA's to listen on same port number?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Makes sense. You can't run multiple services on the same server using
the same IP address and port.
> Or

Use multiple IP addresses and bind each POA to a specific IP.

Time Machine backups to OS X Server 10.8 fail with "The backup disk image "Volumes/Backup6/macname.sparsebundle" is already in use" Error

Connecting about 100 Macs running Mavericks and about half of them are getting "The backup disk image "Volumes/Backup6/macname.sparsebundle" is already in use" error.
Screenshot -
https://www.evernote.com/shard/s87/sh/d03288e2-4ad7-4466-957b-2b9b4fcdea55/71afa 07540fd89e5f9a7eabfc96b4f1e
This was happening with our 10.8 environment and when we migrated to Mavericks, I rebuilt the OS X MacMini Server. Seems worse now with 10.9
Most discussions advise in restarting TimeCapsule or network device. However restarting OS X Server everyday is not a solution. Any advice in resolving this issue is appreciated.
Thanks! Corbin

I also had to restart the server and client after applying the "fix" I described above. Basically, no user should have multiple, simultaneous file sharing sessions on the server. But even clearing the user sessions does not resolve the problem beyond the next Time Machine backup, so I also tried disabling and enabling file sharing, but the problem also returns after doing this. Only restarting both the client and server after clearing the sessions has worked for me when I have this problem. The problem may return much later, but this work aroudn definitely works as a temporary solution.
Next time I encounter this problem I will try restarting just the server or just the client, because it is unlikely that the problem exists due to something on both systems. Server 3.x is definitely not as stable as it should be, but for my use, it is getting the job done.

Multiple LV instances, web server cannot start, port already in use

Hi there,
I have a general question about webserving VIs in case either
a) multiple instances of the LV development environment are running (this is possible in windows XP for instance when "switch users" is allowed and each user launches LV)
b) multiple compiled LV executables are run by the same user
c) any mixture of the two above
I have an application case when either of the three above would be a very good solution, was not for the problem encountered. Say, b): the user is given two deployed executables, and can decide to run either or both concurrently. Moreover, I want these applications to be visible on the web, so they are compiled with the webserver turned on, default settings.
The problem I've seen (LV8.5.1, winXp for sure, but I think I've seen it as well in linux and other versions as well) is that each new instance of the LV engine tries to get hold of the tcp port (default 80), so that all instances beyond the first complain about "The Web Server cannot start. Is the Web Server port already in use?"
While I can understand the origin of the message, and found some posts on the forums somehow related to it, I don't like it too much.
I could think only of two workarounds here: 1) set different web server ports for each LV instance, and instruct the remote users to direct their browsers to a webserverort link to access each VI; 2) run all the applications from the same instance of the LV dev system. The latter is not so convenient for me, due to conflicts in global VIs between all instances of the applications [compiling executables IS a way to privatize memory spaces in this case, AND global variables are imho well justified for the fairly complex application I have in mind here].
Is there a third, more elegant solution perhaps, which I'm missing?
Thanks, Enrico

What is it in particular that you dislike about the message?
How would you like LabVIEW to behave in this case?
No problem with the message, but I'd just be very happy if a single
web server would serve all my instances of the executables on the same
port. I.e., if 2.exe is open and wants to start another server on the
same port used already by 1.exe, then 2.exe becomes served by the
server already opened. Am I demanding too much? Am I missing some
necessary logic?
At the moment, anyway, I'm stuck with the vi being served correctly,
but not the compiled application, and I can't figure out why. It's

Problem while starting Apache Tomcat Server (Ports already in use)...

Hi,
I am using an Eclipse IDE for web service Client creation.. Also I have used Apache Tomcat5.5 Server inorder to run the application*...*
While starting Tomcat Server, I am getting an error that the port numbers are already in use.
So, I have changed the port numbers in the Server.xml file.
But, still it is throwing the same error , even though the port numbers are not in use.
Can any one please provide some suitable solution for this ASAP....
I need very urgent and so please provide some solution..
Thanks in Advance,
roopa

Hey...
Did u start restarting your machine after you changed the ports..
Is your tomcat server running perfectly after you changed the port number...
I had a similar prob.. But i jus reinstalled both and gave different port numbers while re-installling.
Jus give it it a try.. The ports need to be refreshed.. So try rebooting yr machine first !
All the best !

SL and SMB file shares gives 'file already in use' errors

Hi all,
I'm posting a question which has been asked here before but not answered.
We have several Mac users accessing files on a SMB share running on a Windows 2003 Server.
Everything worked fine for years until they upgraded to Snow Leopard, then they started experiencing errors when saving changes to an already-created file; they are thrown the error "Could not save <filename> because the file is already in use or was left open" - however it is clearly not open and nobody else has accessed it from the share.
There seems to be a lot of allusions made to this problem and I've seen hints that it was supposed to have been fixed in 10.6.3 - but we're still experiencing it and it's driving our users nuts!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have similar problems with my new MacPros loaded with SL 10.6.4. Every time when the next network user want to open the file the 1st user opened (closed already), it keeps saying the file is in use.

Mail for Exchange already in use error when sendin...

We have a number of Nokia E50-1 on Vodafone network which we are using Mail for Exchange 2.5.3 (mfe) to sync emails with a microsoft Small Business Server 2003 (SBS2003). When we try to reply or send a new email from the E50 we get the error "Mail for Exchange: Already in use". This happens even if the sync is set to manual and email is set to send with next sync. Very ocassionally a message will go if we keep retrying.
Does anyone know how to resolve this?

hi all,
great forums, hopefully someone has some more info on this, as i am getting the same issue.
I had mail for exchange working with my e71 no worries and then i added my home TPG account. the TPG account would not work for some reason, not that it overtly worried me, but then when i tried sending mail through exchange (either reply or new mail) i get the error message 'Mail for exchange: already in use'
I have removed the TPG account, rebooted the thing several times, all sorts of stuff - nothing seems to work. it is still syncing and i am receiving email, i just can't send...!!
any troubleshooting tips or further info would be greatly appreciated
