Error creating server listener on port 5269: Address already in use: JVM_Bind

I am getting this error anytime I try to start openfire console. Everything was working fine yesterday, then Windows 2003 R2 SE did an update.  On server restart everything was broken.

 

Now I can start the service via command prompt, but nothing seems to be working.  here are the two scenarios:

 

 

 

  1. Start openfire as a service in Windows 2003 R2 SE - successful
                 &n bsp;       Open the openfire console - failure  
     
         Error creating server listener on port 5269: Address already in use: JVM_Bind
                 &n bsp;  *          Openfire 3.5.2 Jul 22, 2008 9:23:57 AM*
                 &n bsp;  *          Admin console listening at:*
                 &n bsp;  *            http://server.com:9090*
                 &n bsp;  *            https://server.com:9091*
                 &n bsp;  *          Error starting server listener on port 5269: null* 
     
         Clicking "Launch Admin" - successful (opens and allows to login)

         Connect to server using client (pidgin) - failure 
     
         not authorized

  2. Stop openfire service - successful
                 &n bsp;       Open the openfire console - successful 
     
         Openfire 3.5.2 Jul 22, 2008 9:36:37 AM
                 &n bsp;  *          Admin console listening at:*
                 &n bsp;  *            http://server.com:9090*
                 &n bsp;  *            https://server.com:9091* 
     
         Clicking "Launch Admin" - successful (opens and allows to login) 
     
         Connect to server using client (pidgin) - failure 
     
         not authorized

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi  Nicholas,

 

when the service is running you should not start the Openfire console as it starts also Openfire. Simply open http://server.com:9090* in your browser.

Do you see errors in the log files? Do you still see all users in the database?

Hi,

 

is it possible that Openfire runs two times? Check this in the task manager or with "ps -ef". After shutdown of Openfire the port 5269 should no longer be used. If it's still used look for other running (java) applications which may use this port.
