Transport chain problems

Review the following topics if you encounter a transport chain problem.

TCP transport channel fails to bind to a specific host/port combination

If a TCP transport channel fails to bind to a specific port, one of the following situations might have occurred:
  • You are trying to bind the channel to a port that is already bound to another application, such as another instance of a WebSphere Application Server.
  • You are trying to bind to a port that is in a transitional state waiting for closure. This socket must transition to closed before you restart the server. The port might be in TIME_WAIT, FIN_WAIT_2, or CLOSE_WAIT state. Issue the netstat -a command from a command prompt to display the state of the port to which you are trying to bind.
