Related ProductsBMS Platform / MP Server
DescriptionThe System log shows the above messages and the BMS Server shuts down.
Causes

The BMS Server is not able to open a TCP server socket for VNET communication.

Resolutions
  • In Core Studio, go to Server > Server configuration
  • Network card IP address should be empty (NETx Server will listen on all network interfaces) or one of your local IP addresses shall be entered.
  • TCP port for secure connection: Default is 14532. Change only if another application uses this port. The same setting must also be used in Visualization Editor.
  • If the problem persists, open an administrator shell and run

    C:\...> netstat -a -b

    Locate the program that occupies the configured port on the configured interfaces and terminate it. Then retry starting the NETx Server.
