I am extending the BaseNettyTest. I forked the git repo and checked out the 2.13.2 tag
public class NettyCustomLocalPortProducerTest extends BaseNettyTest { @Test public void routeFails() throws Exception{ template.sendBody("direct:testEndpoint", "Hello world"); } protected RouteBuilder createRouteBuilder() { return new RouteBuilder() { public void configure() { from("direct:testEndPoint").to("netty:tcp:// www.google.com:80"); } }; } } Hopefully once I will be able to run this I can contribute myself with the fix to use a different port :)) Best -- View this message in context: http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/Camel-Netty-component-bind-failure-tp5755683p5755751.html Sent from the Camel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
