NeoRouter connection server on Windows 2008 can not start. It immediately closes after start button is pressed. I just installed NeoRouter with existing domain and it went through entire process flawlessly but service would not work.
I guess issue with port 443 being in use. How do I change listening port for server?

Thanks for using NeoRouter.

From the log, I see the error message "bind() failed with error 0x8007271D". The error code is WSAEACCES, which means another application is already bound to this port.

You can change server listening port in NeoRouter Configuration Explorer, go to Settings tab, then click on "Change Port" button. You can find more information in User's Manual "4.5 Managing Server and Domain". http://www.neorouter.com/Documents.html.

Let me know if you have more questions.

Can you tell me which port is being used which needs to be changed? My understanding default port was 3000 something and I don't see anybody using that one.

From the log, it appears your NeoRouter server is listening at port 443. "Load domain information: hr=0x0; DomainName=****; Port=443"

The default port is 32976. You can change it back in Configuration Explorer.

Thanks,

How do I use configuration explorer on instance which is not running? How do I authenticate it?

You can temporarily stop IIS or other web server that might be listening at port 443. Then you can start nrserver and connect Configuration Explorer to it.

Another option is to delete *.db file under %AllUsersAppdata%\ZebraNetworkSystems\NeoRouter, then restart nrserver in services.msc. NRServer will rebuild the db file from scratch using default values, and it will listen at port 32976.

Thanks,
Luke
