Unable to bind to the port
Hi,
Informix 11.7.FC8
HP-UX 11.31
I am setting up an SDS server. The primary starts successfully but when I run
the oninit command on a SDS server I get the following error:
"Assert Warning: Unable to bind to the port (9999) on the host (999.99.9.99)
for the server (primary)."
I have checked the sqlhosts and /etc/services files on both servers(primary
and sds).
Wat could be the problem ?
Most likely something is already using that port on the box.
Run the following grep'ing for the port you are trying to use for the SDS
server:
netstat -n -a | grep \\\\.9999

Usually the port number is locked by the OS. Depending on how you confi=
gure
access you may try another port number but there may be some dependenci=
es
which makes this not a viable solution. Else I will bounce the OS to
release the port number. First, check with your admin to see if there i=
s
another way to free the port number besides bouncing the OS. I had that=
issue many times here on Solaris and HP. The admin ended up rebooting t=
he
OS each time.
