I have the LDAP port in the Notes server document set to port 1030 and it has been successfully communicating to my email filter device until yesterday. The night before something occurred to corrupt the mail.box file. I renamed it and the system created a new mail.box. I also installed a Microsoft Update and rebooted the server. Now I’m getting the following message and ldap has stopped communicating with my email filter device. Any ideas of how to get the Notes server to send out port 1030 instead of trying to send out on port 389?
LDAP Server: Listener Failure TCP/IP port number [389] is already in use on this system.
I did find it in the notes.ini file. Somehow it got set to 389. However, I changed the 389 to 1030 in the notes.ini file and save it, then shutdown and brought the Notes server back up and it still said the same message about port 389. I looked at the notes.ini and the 1030 had been changed to 389. I thought, maybe I didn’t save the notes.ini, so I made the change again, saved it again and brought the Notes server down. I checked the notes.ini and the 1030 port was there. However, when I brought up the Notes server, the error message was the same about port 389. I checked the notes.ini and it had been changed again. I assume something is doing this during the initialization of the server, but what would it be and how do I get it to stop doing this? Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks!
OK. So, on your server document, you browse to Ports…–>Internet Ports…Directory and have TCP/IP port number set to 1030, correct? What about your SSL port number?
Also, check your configuration settings. Do you have any Notes.ini settings here that could be overwriting the actual notes.ini file?
Finally, could it be possible that your network admin has the port coded to 389 on the actual IP of the server, and it is reading that by the notes server? I don’t know much about this, so I may have no idea what I am talking about here I just know that there are some settings on actual IP that our network admin has to toy with.
Yes, in the current server doc, under ports, internet ports and directory, the tcp/ip port is set to 1030 and the ssl port is set to 636 but the ssl port is disabled. I don’t know what other configuration settings would overwrite the Notes.ini. I am the network admin, so I know I didn’t do anything to make it send to port 389 in the operating system. The only things that have been done to change that server recently are a Windows Security Update was installed. I have been playing with the inotes settings in the configuration, but I don’t know which of those settings could have caused the notes.ini to be rewritten on startup. The evening before this problem started occurring, something happened to corrupt the mail.box file. I renamed it and everything seemed to be working fine except this issue with the LDAP port. Does this help shed some light on anything? Thanks!
