Error Binding Omnis Server socket appears when opening CDM+

Problem

When opening CDM+ the message Binding Omnis Server socket appears and does not close. The program never displays the usual startup windows such as Login or Setup Assistant.

Solution

Ensure there is only one copy of CDM+ running. If there is only one copy running and this message still occurs, reboot the computer.

Explanation

This message can occur when:

  1. A second copy of CDM+ is launched. A single installation of CDM+ cannot be run multiple times. If you want to use multiple copies of CDM+, see How to install multiple copies of CDM+.

  2. Another instance of CDM+ crashed and didn't gracefully release a networking socket. Rebooting will clear any sockets in use.
