Coturn: Install rfc5766-turn-server, Trying to bind fd to <ip address>: errno=99

[khoachung89]

I'm using an Ubuntu 14.04 (an Azure VPS actually) so i have to installed rfc5766-turn-server not the latest coturn version. I have following this guide.

At the last step, i cannot start turnserver. My command to start:

turnserver -n -L <my_server_public_IP> -X <my_server_public_IP> -E <my_server_public_IP> -a -f -r my-domain.com --cert /myPath/TurnServerCerts/turnserver.crt --pkey /myPath/TurnServerCerts/TurnServerCerts/turnserver.key

I got the following from the log:

And now, i still cannot start turn server.

UPDATE

I have tried removing the -L parameter and the turnserver can start without above error. Of course, it's listening my local IP address only (127.0.0.1/10.0.1.4/::1). How can i force it listening my public IP address?

Something is already using that port.

[KartikRajaS]

user=root:o**
listening-port=2434
listening-ip=192.168.1.1 \local ip
relay-ip=192.168.1.1 \local ip
external-ip=

turnserver.config

this is my config file when is run listening ip with local ip address no error occurs.. but when i replace it with mu public ip or server's ip i am getting the same above mentioned error..

Can any one please guide me to start the turnserver without any error..

Issue resolved by changing min and max ip range from

(default values are 49152 and 65535)

#
min-port=69152
max-port=85535
