Make sure your ports are opened and run as administrator.

Which port? LocalIP.txt in MSGSRV folder is 127.0.0.1 5001 so I'm assuming you are pointing to 5001? I believe the port is open, also my firewall is off, also I tried running it as Administration and to no avail. still binding fail.

Here's the screen shot

These are the last 4 lines of my ServerList.txt in MSGSRV folder and probably the same as the other

0 50 192.168.88.60 3050
0 51 192.168.88.60 5001
0 52 192.168.88.60 5052
0 53 192.168.88.60 5053

So do you want me to append those entries that you mentioned? Like this:

0 50 192.168.88.60 3050
0 51 192.168.88.60 5001
0 52 192.168.88.60 5052
0 53 192.168.88.60 5053
0 192.168.88.60 5051
0 192.168.88.60 5052
0 192.168.88.60 5053
0 192.168.88.60 7514



So this is now my full ServerList.txt, but I still got binding fail when running MSGSRV



I only added this line
0 54 192.168.88.60 7514

Are you using Lan connection ? If no , then you should use the 127.0.0.1 IP

Yes I'm trying to test it only on my pc. I tried my lan ip which is 192.168.88.60 also I tried my loopback ip 127.0.0.1 I still got binding fail.

If you think about the error message "binding fail" maybe it's talking about connecting to other program so my question now is:
1. Which program/server does MSGSRV require? is it DBSRV? but I already ran it first before MSGSRV.
2. Did I messed up with the ODBC? (my odbc's are named like these and connected to it's database names BILL_CONN=billcrux_phil, Tantra=Tantra, TantraGM=TantraGM and UserLogin=UserLogin both on User DSN and System DSN)
3. Does my firewall mess up? (by the way I turned off the firewall completely)
4. Do I have bad server files? (I already tested at least 3 kinds of server compilation found in this forum)
5. Can I still connect using a client if I got this binding error?

Also I got another problem running Zone.exe "Can't connect to ITEM-SERVER", but removing the itemserver.txt will allow the Zone.exe to continue starting-up.

I just found out that other operating system doesn't yield this error. I was using Windows 10 Enterprise. I just installed Windows Server 2016 to test quick if MSGSRV will run smothly, and it does!

Now I can continue with the rest of the setup.

For anyone who encountered this problem, add this to your todo list: Try other Operating System

if you are using windows 8, windows 10 or windows 11. you will get the "binding fail" because those OS are not supported anymore. You may try windows server 2012. or lower.
