If Uptime Infrastructure Monitor cannot bind to a specific port, it writes an error to the uptime.log file and you cannot connect to the UIM web interface. This exception (see example below) appears when starting the UIM data collector service under the following scenarios:

  1. The UIM data collector is already running or is using the wrong port. In this case:
    1. Open the httpd.conf file in a text editor.
    2. Find the Listen xxxx line.
    3. Set xxxx to the appropriate port number.
  2. Another service is using the UIM data collector port (9995 default). In this case, determine which service is using the same port and adjust port settings to resolve the conflict.
