Hello All,
It is my FreeBSD 5.1 sever with WHM 9.4 installed on it.When I checked service status i found that exim is failed on server.
When I cheked the pniclogs on server I found this in that :
2004-06-30 17:02:02 socket bind() to port 465 for address (any IPv6) failed: Address already in use: daemon abandoned
2004-07-07 04:18:36 socket bind() to port 465 for address (any IPv6) failed: Address already in use: daemon abandoned
2004-07-09 14:07:10 socket bind() to port 25 for address (any IPv6) failed: Address already in use: daemon abandoned
2004-07-09 14:07:10 socket bind() to port 465 for address (any IPv6) failed: Address already in use: daemon abandoned
2004-07-09 14:09:30 socket bind() to port 465 for address (any IPv6) failed: Address already in use: daemon abandoned
Now What should I do ?
here is what i get /etc/init.d/httpd start
.: Can't open /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions: No such file or directory
Could not create INET socket: Address already in use IO::Socket::INET: Address already in use
What should i do?
Please help

Okay, I am not really sure what might be going on here but I have a few questions that could help me (or others) help you.

1) What is WHM 9.4, what does it do, and has this run in the past ... did you upgrade recently?
2) Look at sockstat... look for entries containing :25 or :465 ... any of the ports you can't open. This should tell you which program is listening on that port.

It could be something completely different and I might be searching in the wrong direction but this is where I would start.

Hello,
WHM is nothing but Web host manager which is kind of control panel for web servers.It is not the service or etc.And it has nothing to do with the problem.
Below I am posting the netstat answers for port 465
tcp4 0 0 *.465 *.* LISTEN
tcp6 0 0 *.465 *.* LISTEN

and for port 25 it is :
tcp4 0 0 *.25 *.* LISTEN
tcp6 0 0 *.25 *.* LISTEN

It is like tcp4 and tcp6 both are in listen mode.And realyy i found nothing else.
What could be the reason?Do u need any other information?
Please help me
