Home → Troubleshooting → Network Server Issues → FLEXnet error: "Exiting due to signal 28"
Applies to: Palisade network products, on license server
When I start the service, it stops itself. The log shows these lines:
(palisade) tcp_s is bad!!! Exiting
(palisade) EXITING DUE TO SIGNAL 28 Exit reason 5
(lmgrd) palisade exited with status 28 (Communications error)
The vendor daemon is trying to use the same port as lmgrd. Either set them both to dynamic (or unspecified), or change one of them to a different specific number.
It is simpler to change the vendor daemon port number, because that change affects only the server and does not require reconfiguring the client software.
