Tryng to start server with java:su domino85 -c “/opt/ibm/lotus/bin/server -jc -c”
I have this response!!
createServerSocket=Cannot assign requested address
Unable to bind to port 2050 on host machine sr31.ric1.local/172.16.3.237:
Either the host name or address is wrong or the port is already in use.
Domino Server Controller exiting: Listener startup timed out.
Please check if another Server Controller instance is running in the same data directory.
Please press to exit…
How can i check the port 2050 to understand why i seem busy?
Subject: Some hints
netstat -a | grep 2050 will show you wether port 2050 is being used or not.But that’s likely not the problem.
As far as I understand, the issue is more with <> like if the [Fully qualified Internet host name] in the [Basic] tab of the server document is a name provided by an external DNS.
You can check that with traceroute sr31.ric1.local, or maybe your host name is not sr31 or whatever. You may want to check that with a network admin.
Moreover it looks like a bug that IBM has no intention to fix :
Other workarounds :
-
Obviously, use Domino Admin instead
-
webadmin.nsf if you have http runing on your server
-
check the startup / shutdown scripts in Redirect Notice
(look for notes_screen)
Good luck !

I lost my time looking for port 2050… but the answer was in the hosts file, the server changed ipaddress and i didn’t update!
now it works!
