I m restarting HAproxy by following command

but i get following message

[ALERT] 183/225022 (9278) : Starting proxy appli2-insert: cannot bind socket

what is wrong with my aproach

Best Answer

Two options:

  1. You aren't running as root; probably needs a sudo in front of your command to start it on the command line if you aren't running as root (check with whoami).
  2. Another process, likely another instance of HAProxy, is already bound to those ports. Check with netstat -apn.
