The two most common reasons a port can't be opened are insufficient 
permissions (meaning it should run as root or setuid(root)) or the port 
is already in use by another process, nmap and netstat will come in 
handy to find that out.

Do an "nmap 127.0.0.1" and see if it reports port 125 to be in use. If 
so use netstat to find out which process is using it. I found this cute 
example to print out a nicely sorted list:
  /bin/netstat -nlatp | grep tcp | grep LIST | awk '{print $4,$7}' | awk 
-F: '{print $2}' | awk -F/ '{print $1,$2}' | awk '{print $1,$3}' | sort -nu

Try and start it by hand as root (I assume you use an init script or 
similar to start it?), if that works then you know the cause, 
insufficient permission.
