Re: Re: xAP Stopped Working

In which case I suspect that when you look in services you will find
that the hub failed to startup - probably because some other
application/service had already acquired port 3639.  Can you only run
the xAP hub and see if that works.

Do any of the other xAP app heartbeats show they are using port 3639 ?
