Re: [AOLSERVER] Problem starting aolserver
You need to start it as root to listen on port 80 and pre-bind nsd to the port, by adding -b 64.58.34.71:80 e.g. /usr/local/aolserver/bin/nsd -ft ./nsd.tcl -u something -g something -b 64.58.34.71:80 P Thorpe Mayes wrote: When trying to start a newly installed version of aolserver, I get this error: Error: nssock: failed to listen on 64.58.34.71:80: Permission denied What folder/file does not have the correct permissions?

Re: [AOLSERVER] Problem starting aolserver
Some other process is already listening on that IP address on port 80. Usually the culprit is Apache, however in this case when I go to http://64.58.34.71 I get the AOLserver 4.5 welcome page, so it looks like you might just be trying to run a second instance of the nsd you just installed. When things like this happen to me I usually shut everything down (killall nsd works well if you don't have other sites on the system that need to stay running) and start it up fresh. janine On Feb 12, 2007, at 11:19 AM, Thorpe Mayes wrote: When trying to start a newly installed version of aolserver, I get this error: Error: nssock: failed to listen on 64.58.34.71:80: Permission denied What folder/file does not have the correct permissions?

Re: [AOLSERVER] Problem starting aolserver
Port 80 requires root to start the server, AOLserver does a prebind as root then switches to the user (something in your case). It could also be the case that the ip address is incorrect, I'm not sure if you get the exact same message. tom jackson On Monday 12 February 2007 11:19, Thorpe Mayes wrote: When trying to start a newly installed version of aolserver, I get this error: Error: nssock: failed to listen on 64.58.34.71:80: Permission denied What folder/file does not have the correct permissions?

To listen on ports below 255, Unix requires you to start the process as root. If you *are* starting as root (I see you've got a -u flag on the command line) then it could be that something else is already bound to that port. But I'll bet you're not starting as root. God knows I've done that often enough.
