I have a new Domino 8.0.2 server that we are trying to set up with SSL. I’ve done all the steps I believe necessary, but when I go to load http I receive the error “Unable to bind port XXXXX, port may be in use or user needs net_privaddr privilege” I have tried a number of different port numbers, in case one actually was being used, but always receive the same result. I have also searched the forums and google, with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Subject: RE: HTTP problems
Do you use AVG?
AVG has a module called “Web Shield”. In the advanced settings there is a section within the Web shield / Web Protection that specifies “Ports to be scanned” - listed in there are “80, 8080, 3128” - removing 80 from the list will allow Avg and the Domino HTTP server to function together.
Also, check your Server document → Internet Protocols → HTTP tab. If ‘bind to host name’ is enabled, then it is very important that there is only one value needed. If both an IP and a server name are specified, HTTP will fail to load starting in Domino 8.
Finally, you didn’t mention what ports you are using, but using port 80 as an example, you should check and make sure everything’s properly bound on whatever port you are using. Check netstat -na from the command prompt and see if anything else is using port 80, and if it is, make sure it is bound to IP (and not taking up the entire port). Then check your Server document → Internet Protocols tab → HTTP section, and make sure your HTTP server is bound to the correct hostname or IP.
