Aaron got me pointed in the right direction. Between him and the bsd
lists I figured it out.
I ended up giving two people free hosting for a year. But that's O.K.
because I got this box working now.
Here is the fix.
Here's what I did. I added the following line to /etc/rc.conf:
jakarta_tomcat55_java_opts="-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true"
JDK1.5 chokes on binding to any address with FreeBSD 6.0 because of the
IPv6 stack.
The JDK documentation on IPv6 documents this command line define, also.
On a related note, when I tried to build JDK1.5 with IPV6 support, I got
an error. But, that's a subject for another thread on another list, I
think.

I'm getting some good feedback, and I think I'm narrowing down the
problem now. Thanks Aaron. Yes, if this is it I'll give him the hosting.
I'm narrowing down a problem with BindAddress on jdk1.5, FreeBSD RELENG_6 .

Here's the error:

I'm able to reproduce the error with the following code, with IPv6
enabled and with IPv6 disabled...
import java.net.*;
public class TestServer {
public static void main (String[] args) throws Exception {
if (args.length != 2) {
System.out.println("Usage: java TestServer
<host_address_ipv6> <port>");
System.exit(1);
}
System.out.println("Host Address="+args[0]);
System.out.println("Port ="+args[1]);
ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket();
ss.bind(new
InetSocketAddress(InetAddress.getByName(args[0]),
Integer.parseInt(args[1])));
System.out.println("ServerSocket Bound");
ss.accept();
}
}

Hi Richard,
I don't have the time at the moment, but typically when Java can't
bind to a port that is /in use/ it says something like:
Address already in use: JVM_Bind
Your error is different. It's saying it can't /assign/ the address.
That speaks of a lower level problem to me. I'd double check any
firewall/ipchains/etc. settings.
There apparently was a bug in Java 1.4 on SuSE, maybe this will help:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6206527
Something to do with IPv6. Might want to check that too.

I've been trying for about 12 hours now, and can't figure out why
Tomcat won't bind to a port. The ports aren't being used, and in
JVMs are running.
I'm out of ideas and this is delaying a production box.
I'll give free webhosting for a year to anyone who wants to take the
time to log onto the box and can fix this while talking to me on the
phone. The web server that does the hosting has e-mail, awstats,
pgsql, mysql, postnuke, Apache 1.3, mod_ssl, mod_perl, mod_jk and of
course Tomcat (when you get it running).
Using JDK1.5 and FreeBSD 6.0.
