[BDS-18482] ERROR Port [19132] may be in use by another process Created: 22/Jun/23  Updated: 14/May/24  Resolved: 14/May/24

Status: Resolved
Project: Bedrock Dedicated Server
Affects Version/s: 1.20.0

Confirmation Status: Unconfirmed

 Description   

Both bedrock-server-1.20.1.02.zip and bedrock-server-1.20.10.24.zip fails since it think port is in use, though it isn't!

Downloaded from https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/download/server/bedrock

I verified the port was not in use with `sudo lsof -i | grep 19132` on my Archlinux machine.

https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-bedrock-server/issues/326 is the same issue, though in a Docker environment.

Can you please try to configure your server with different ports? You can do that by editing server.properties line: "server-port=19132" and "server-portv6=19133" be sure to turn off "enable-lan-visibility=true.

Not original poster but I also get this issue.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Docker
2. Run the server in a docker container assigning an unused port to it and configuring the server to use it. (I use image ghcr.io/parkervcp/yolks:debian but it seems to also occur with other docker images)
3. Try and start the server

Additional details:

netstat inside the container, port is not in use:

netstat on the host with the container up (shows the docker proxy process):

netstat on the host with the container shut down:

Observed Results:
The server believes the port is used:
[2023-07-09 02:16:50:719 ERROR] Port [19133] may be in use by another process. Free up port and re-run program or adjust server.properties file to use alternate ports for server

Expected Results:

The server starts up as it used to do
