Are you sure it's killed? You may only have killed the parent process. Do a "ps -ef | grep java" to see it it's still running.
If you have "lsof" installed, try $ lsof -i | grep 10012 or just $ telnet localhost 10012 I'm not expert, but if the port is in use, then the process is still running.... (For a good way of killing java more reliably, see perl Proc::Killfam which can send a whole process family a signal) Fergus On Fri, Aug 16, 2002 at 09:51:23AM +0200, Eric Proust - Ifrance wrote: > Hi All, > > I'm using SocketServer as a central point of logging for all my apps. > > I start the SocketServer on Solaris 2.8 as a background program. > When I want to stop it, I use the 'kill' command. > This works fine but when I'm not able to restart the SocketServer because > the IP port has not been released ! > > Part of the log : > ------------------------------------------------ > log4j: Finished configuring. > 2002-08-16 08:27:43,125 org.apache.log4j.net.SocketServer > org.apache.log4j.net.SocketServer - Listening on port 10012 > java.net.BindException: Address already in use > at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketBind(Native Method) > at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.bind(PlainSocketImpl.java:405) > at java.net.ServerSocket.<init>(ServerSocket.java:170) > at java.net.ServerSocket.<init>(ServerSocket.java:82) > at org.apache.log4j.net.SocketServer.main(SocketServer.java:97) > ------------------------------------------------- > > Not that when I start the SocketServer as a foreground program, > I have no problem because I stop it by sending a 'CTRL-C' command. > > Thanks in advance for a solution. > > Eric > > > ______________________________________________________________________________ > Pour mieux recevoir vos emails, utilisez un PC plus performant ! > Dcouvrez la nouvelle gamme DELL en exclusivit sur i (france) > http://www.ifrance.com/_reloc/signedell > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Fergus Gallagher Tel: +44 (20) 8742 1600 Orbis Fax: +44 (20) 8742 2649 414 Chiswick High Street email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] London W4 5TL Web: http://www.orbisuk.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
