if the mnemonic DNS name is know best mention that one too

Comment 1 Mark Thomas 2023-07-31 12:54:55 UTC
The IP/port information is already in the log file. The log line before the quoted  exception provides the protocol (AJP, HTTP, etc) , Connector (NIO, NIO2, etc), Address (if any) and port.
Comment 2 Graham Leggett 2023-07-31 13:02:30 UTC
+1 to fixing the error message.

There is no obvious link between log lines on different lines, just because a port appears on previous line, it means nothing.

Please fix this.

Similar undescriptive error case in the same class:

Comment 4 Antonio Ancona 2023-07-31 15:13:02 UTC
We have multiple connectors listening on port 8443 in our server.xml, each of them with a different "address" field.

As Ralf Hauser suggested, it would be beneficial to cite this address verbatimely, the corresponding IP address.
In case the address field is an IP address to begin with, the reverse DNS lookup  would be very helpful.
If this all could be cited in "[Connector[HTTP/1.1-8443]]" (and in the exception message as soon as "NioEndpoint" gets hold of it (java.net.BindException: Address already in use).
Comment 5 Ralf Hauser 2023-07-31 15:29:50 UTC
also, it would be useful to be clearer on the protocol:

The current error message says "HTTP/1.1".

In reality it is most likely "https" as the connector has the attributes

SSLEnabled="true"

Comment 6 Mark Thomas 2023-08-03 13:46:02 UTC
Connector log messages now use the same name format as the protocol handler (e.g. "http-nio-127.0.0.1-8080") to reference the Connector.

Fixed in:
- 11.0.x for 11.0.0-10 onwards
- 10.1.x for 10.1.12 onwards
-  9.0.x for  9.0.79 onwards
-  8.5.x for  8.5.92 onwards
