When Laserfiche Workflow Server 8 and Laserfiche Server 8 are installed on the same computer, Workflow may log the following error message to the workflow error.log file:

Type : System.Net.Sockets.SocketException, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089
Message : Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted
Source : System
Help link :
ErrorCode : 10048
SocketErrorCode : AddressAlreadyInUse
NativeErrorCode : 10048
Data : System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal
TargetSite : Void DoBind(System.Net.EndPoint, System.Net.SocketAddress)
Stack Trace : at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.DoBind(EndPoint endPointSnapshot, SocketAddress socketAddress) at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Bind(EndPoint localEP) at Laserfiche.Project.LicenseSerialBroadcaster.BroadcastingThread(Object state)

The Workflow Server and the Laserfiche Server contain mechanisms that check for duplicate serial numbers. The mechanisms use the same port. This error message can be safely ignored as it will not impact the functionality of either the Workflow Server or the Laserfiche Server.
