Yes, that did it. I didn't realize I could set the file name attribute to an empty string. Thanks so much for the information!

You can turn of the logging, but you still need the logging element as we have a TracePublisher which actually always publishes trace messages (and uses port 9922 if not otherwise explicitly set).

In order to turn logging off, set the logFile attribute to empty string:

"" port="9923" />

Thanks for the quick reply. However, I have logging commented-out so that a file won't be written. So is there a way to specify another port if i don't want to turn-on logging? I'm not sure why the logging service would be listening on a port when it is commented and not being used.

Hi Adam,

You can specify the port in the logging element. If not explicitly set, it will use the default 9922:

port="9923" />

I am attempting to run 2-3 instances of BOS (Windows Service) on the same server. The first instance is configured to listen on port 9009, the second on port 9010 and the third on port 9011. I can start any one of these services by themselves just fine, but I cannot start another while the first is running. In other words, I cannot run two of the services at the same time. When I attempt to start a BOS service after one is already running, the following error message is logged to the event viewer (please see below). It is saying that "there is already a listener on IP endpoint 0.0.0.0:9922". Can I specify this port somewhere in each BOS config file so that I won't get this conflict? If so, what is the setting? Hopefully I'm overlooking something obvious. Thanks!
