Router restart error

Hello there, 
I'm trying to restart edge-router on my on-prem apigee installation, 


I ran the command 

 

 

 /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-router restart

 

 

and i get the status as running. after several seconds, the status become NOT RUNNING(DEAD). 

Here's the log stream :

Hello @abdullah_m,

We saw your question and wanted to let you know we’re keeping it on our radar. We’ll also invite others in the community to pitch in and share their thoughts.

The "edge-router" service is comprised of two independent servers, one of which starts the other. In the logs you have shared, edge-router is undergoing what we refer to as bootstrapping (fetching information from zookeeper and other source to build configuration files for nginx) then attempts to start the nginx server but fails to do so. Unfortunately there is not much in terms of context here that explains why nginx failed to start successfully. You may be able to find more clues elsewhere in nginx logs be it port bind failure or other status. If possible. I would recommend reaching out to Google Support for more direct assistance as they are better suited to provide more specific guidance.

However a few suggestions on where to look next. 

Within the folder `/opt/apigee/var/log/edge-router` you can find beyond the usual suspects the edge-router.log. While normally containing a subset of events this may hold other clues about the nginx start up failure. And `/opt/apigee/var/log/edge-router/nginx` may also have some additional context.

Hello

We have had the same issue. 
In the output you see, that apigee tries to start the nginx:

2025-03-23 11:57:57,339  main INFO  NGINX_ADAPTOR - Nginx.start() : Trying to start Nginx using command /opt/nginx/scripts/apigee-nginx start

I tried to start the apigee-nginx directly, which was not possible, as the port is already in use:

# /opt/nginx/scripts/apigee-nginx start
Starting nginx: nginx: [emerg] bind() to 127.0.0.1:9080 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 127.0.0.1:9080 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 127.0.0.1:9080 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 127.0.0.1:9080 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 127.0.0.1:9080 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] still could not bind()

After killing the process, the edge-router starts without problems.

# netstat -tulnp | grep :9080
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:9080 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1704/nginx: master

# kill 1704
