Hi

We have installed 2 Build Forge environments on Linux 7.

However we are having problems with one of them . When we start the application this message is being displayed on login screen.

BuildForge_ServicesException[0]: 111: Connection refused

A DBA reviewed db2 instance and he didn't find any issue. 

From apache logs we find:

[Mon Nov 21 16:35:41 2016] [error] [client IP] PHP Warning:  fsockopen() [<a href='function.fsockopen'>function.fsockopen</a>]: unable to connect to hostIP:3966 (Connection refused)
in /opt/IBM/buildforge/webroot/includes/BuildForge/Services.php on line 539

rvices.php on line 540

If we do a telnet we are able to connect to the server where BF works well on port 3996.
If we try the same on the server with the problem the connection is refused.

Firewalls have been disabled in both servers.

We think probably an apache process is not starting up correctly as we find more apache processes active on the server working properly.

Any ideas or recommendations?

Thanks.
