user processes cannot bind to ports lower than 1024. Never forget dat. "Ronald L. Chichester" wrote:

I'm getting the exact same socket.error message that appeared on this list in March, 2000. (See the attached problem.txt file.) Specifically, this is the error message that I get when I start zope. The person who kindly identified the problem didn't provide a solution. I have my netstat -a results attached as netstat.txt. Could someone tell me how I can resolve this port conflict?

Incidentally, I'm using Mandrake 7.1 in a fairly standard configuration.

Thanks in advance,

This is the reply that was provided to the first person who encountered this problem (and submitted it to the list):

<MESSAGE>

You have another process that is "bind" to port 98...

this is the registered port for "tacnews".

try "netstat -a" under the shell...

When I try to start Z Server i get the following error messages:

File

"/WWW/Docs/product_development/teams/AMD_framework/dev/Zope/ZServer/medusa/a

syncore.py",

...

line 205, in bind return self.socket.bind (addr) socket.error: (98, 'Address already in use')

I don't use the number 98 in any address or port (http=80, ftp='' and monitor='') so what could this error be about ?
