Cache Locator on port 41415 does not start

[ML86]

Dear Community,

we have a problem with the service Cache Locator on port 41415 on our Middle-Tier Server: this service does not start.

I have deleted the .locator and locatorNNNNNstate.dat files and restarted the service. Unfortunately, that didn't help.

Do you have any idea how I can get the service to run?

Many thanks and best regards.

Please post the errors in your cache locator log. I have a suspicion that this might be caused by another process already having port 41415 open.

Thank you for your reply, I could solve the problem.

@ML86 What was the issue and how did you resolve it?

I cleaned up the gemfire directory by removing the files .locator and locatorxxxxxstate.dat.
