It was an issue with the NICs. I had recently upgraded 8 servers. I bought 3com 3c2000s for the lot of them, they use the marvell yukon chip, and I have that chip on 2 linux servers, and it works REAL well. For some reason, not an issue with the 2 webservers with the new nics, but the 6 witango servers, many issues, like the one below. Also, at night, they would lose connectivity. Reset the port on the switch and they would come back up.

I had an issue like this many moons ago on mail server. NIC would lose conn, when a certain user checked a certain email. Support said change the nic to intel or 3com. I went with intel pro 1000, and no more problem.

I changed my witango nics to intel pro 1000 GTs, and no more problems.

Like there is some incompatibility with something witango does, cuz I have not seen any problems on other machines. Anyway, just mentioning, in case any one runs into this.

I have not seen this, and my efforts on Windows 2003 have worked well, but I have found that some ports are used that I wasn't expecting. For example, I provide a set range of ports for my Passive FTP to use, and I was surprised to find that one of the ports was already in use. This range had worked fine
for me in the past.

My point is that perhaps something else, not necessarily Witango, is already using the port. I would suggest using some other port and see if the problem
continues.

If it does, do you have any indication that Witango is launching twice? (check the event log) it might be possible to Witango to be launching under two different users, or failing to launch completely the first time and
trying again.

Just some ideas to try.

Subject: Witango-Talk: Witango Startup problem

I recently upgraded all of our witango servers, we have a bank of 6
running on windows 2003 web edition. All identical.

On 3 of the servers, I get this on reboot, or initial start of
witango after it is been sitting stopped.

[ 1572] 2005-10-28 01:08:24 START      INFO     Listener Port: 18155
[ 1572] 2005-10-28 01:08:24 START      ERROR    Configuration: Cannot
use port 18155, another server is running
[ 1572] 2005-10-28 01:08:24 START      ERROR    Startup: Can't
initialize Witango Server. See the previous error for details.

There is no other server running, and if I just restart the service,
it starts fine. But on these 3 servers, after reboot, witango does
this each time.

Anyone else seen this?
