Server Issue

[Jmaster988]

First I'd like to say that I have thoroughly enjoying playing Mage. This is a great project and I'm trying to get my friends into it as well.

On to my issue: I have a spare computer at home running RedHat 5.4 64-bit that I use as a server. I'd like to run a Mage server but it crashes with the following error

Code: Select all

FATAL [2011-09-14 18:37 [10:887]] Main[main]: Failed to start server - [IP ADDRESS]:17177/?serializationtype=jboss
java.io.IOException: SocketServerInvoker[[IP ADDRESS]:17177] error creating ServerSocket[[IP ADDRESS]:17177]: Cannot assign requested address


I have confirmed that port 17177 is open on both my local firewall and my router's firewall. I have also tried using both my internal and external IP address. I did some googling for ServerSocket errors but didn't get any good leads. Any ideas what the issue might be?

Hi,

Had no problems with starting Mage server on linux.
May you check what ports does Mage try to use rather than 17171?
And also try to run Mage using "sudo root", if it works, then smth with access rights.
