Jaya, I experienced a similar issue with recent upgrades...and what I found worked was to shut down the email engine on the node that you are upgrading....for some reason, the installer recognizes that the port is in use, but not that the app using it is the email engine....so just shut down the email engine on that node and it upgraded just fine for me.

The problem we see is upgrading the secondary servers if we select email engine along with the ARS server in the server group mode. Below are the steps we are following and the installer doesn't allow us to install engine engine on the secondary server as it says port 1100 (this is port on which email engine is running in our environment) is in use - Stop all servers expect the primary server - take the primary server out of the server group and we upgrade it along with email engine - this works fine - Take the secondary servers out server group - run the installer select server group upgrade mode along with email - this gives us an error that port 1100 is already in use We have tried stopping the email engine on the primary server still the installer doesn't allow us to upgrade the email engine. Any ideas what could be the issue or is there a different approach to upgrade a server group environment along with email// Please suggest Environment details ARS - 7.1 patch 5( server group of 5 servers) OS - Solaris 9 DB - Oracle Thanks Jaya _attend WWRUG12 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
