Hi list!
When I run ggsn, terminal shows:
*fg: 1* *debug: 1* *qos: 0x0b921f* *apn: internet* *net: 192.168.0.0/24* *dynip: 192.168.254.0/24* *pidfile: /var/run/ggsn.pid* *statedir: /var/lib/ggsn/* *timelimit: 0* *gtpclient: Initialising GTP tunnel* *openggsn[7002]: GTP: gtp_newgsn() started* *openggsn[7002]: gtp.c: 719: State information file (/var/lib/ggsn/gsn_restart) not found. Creating new file.* *openggsn[7002]: gtp.c: 740: fopen(path=/var/lib/ggsn/gsn_restart, mode=w) failed: Error = No such file or directory* *openggsn[7002]: gtp.c: 808: bind(fd0=4, addr=bf86f8dc, len=16) failed: Error = Address already in use* *openggsn[7002]: ggsn.c: 498: Failed to create gtp* * * If I run it again addr parameter change but log also indicates that address is already in use.
Someone can help me?
Thanks!

Hi Arturo,
please make sure your subject is correct. Your message is not about OpenBTS, but about OpenGGSN.
Secondly, OpenGGSN has its own mailing list, which is the better place to ask your question:

This is also very clear: It tries to create the file /var/lib/ggsn/gsn_restart, but apparently the directory /var/lib/ggsn does not exist!

Even more clear: the GTP protocol has already bound to, i.e. you have some other process running that has already claimed the GTP protocol on your specified IP address.
GTP is a layer4 protocol, not layer5 like http/ftp. You cannot have multiple prgrams using GTP on the same IP address. Only one GTP socket can be opened for each address. In case of doubt, run GGSN and SGSN on separate machines.
