Failed to allocate port error when configuring EM (Oracle 11g)

Experts,

I'm having some issues when I try to configure EM (see log below)
./emca -config dbcontrol db -repos create
on 11g.

I think part of the problem is that the Oracle instance was created with a host name of <server>.domain.com but this server + domain name does not resolve. The /etc/hosts file contains an entry for IP address - server name.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Could you please fgrep for "emd_url" in the file "/data/disk1/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/diagnostics_db/sysman/config/emd.properties" and give the output here?

sure:
EMD_URL=http://db-svr01.mydomain.com:/emd/main/

NOTE: some values where changed for security

That is ok on the part of values being changed for security.

The EMD_URL should look like the one below:
    EMD_URL=<http or https>://<hostname>:<port>/emd/main/

Hence, please give the port on which you want to run your agent.
If you are not sure about the port, please start with 3872 and in which case, give the http, but not https.

ReliableDBA, thanks for the suggestion. I changed
EMD_URL=http://db-srv01:3872/emd/main/

but I still get the same error...
