Urgent Help needed on error

[Ronald Tan]

I keep getting this error when running my Java Apps on Resin.

java.net.SocketException: Can't assign requested address

Does anyone know what is the cause? I have tried checking if the IP address
and port has been used...they are all free.

Resin running on HP UX.

TIA

I keep getting this error when running my Java Apps on
Resin.

java.net.SocketException: Can't assign requested address

Does anyone know what is the cause? I have tried checking
if the IP address and port has been used...they are all free.

Resin running on HP UX.

Can't advise on Resin or HP UX-related matters.

However, in Java terms, it sounds like a BindErrorException [a subclass of
SocketException which is, in turn, a subclass of IOException] is occuring.
One place this can be seen is where attempts to create sockets in which both
remote and local host details are specified:

... = new Socket(remoteAddr, remotePort, localAddr, localPort);

and the 'localAddr' argument contains an invalid / non-existent local IP
address.

Without looking at code, or the specifics of the problem, there's little
more that can be said.

I hope this helps.
