Summary :
SAP components such as message server, dispatcher, and gateway fail to start due to port conflicts, as indicated by error messages related to binding and listening (e.g., 'NiIBindSocket: bind (10013: WSAEACCES: Permission denied)' for Windows or 'NiIBindSocket: bind (98: Address already in use)' for Linux). The issue arises when the port, particularly port 3600, is already in use by another process. The recommended resolution involves identifying and terminating the process occupying the port using system-specific commands like 'netstat' or 'lsof'.
