Gerold Broser's questions

I perform:

# service scm-server start
SCM-Server will now be started
# service scm-server status
SCM-Server is running
 PID: 2166
 PID: 2167

After a few seconds:

# service scm-server status
SCM-Server is not running

/opt/scm-server/var/log/scm-server.err contains:

/opt/scm-server/conf/server-config.xml contains:

Port 8082 isn't occupied:

If I stop the service on 8080 scm-server starts succesfully. Why does it try to take the default port 8080 regardless of the different config setting?

I installed httpd 2.4.10-2.fc20 and it runs:

$ systemctl -l | grep httpd.*running
httpd.service         loaded active running   The Apache HTTP Server

... and listens:

$ netstat -pant | egrep 'PID|httpd'
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address       Foreign Address     State       PID/Program name
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:80          0.0.0.0:*           LISTEN      29709/httpd

It responses as expected if accessed from a local browser on this Linux machine.

Trying to access it from FF on a Windows machine in my Intranet I get a network timeout. ssh connections (including Xming) work like a charm so it's obviously not a networking problem. I don't have a personal firewall running on this Windows that could block something.

I've seen Apache listens, but doesn't respond but this didn't help. I disabled iptables:

$ systemctl status iptables
iptables.service - IPv4 firewall with iptables
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/iptables.service; disabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)

This bugs me since hours and I searched the net up and down and tried various things - to no avail.
