make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:8011

This suggests that something is already listening on port 8011. Run netstat at command level and see if this is in fact the case.

I did tried netstat and could not found any other service using the custom port. finally I noticed the selinux not allowing to change the httpd known port and I followed the steps from another site and able to add the custom port for httpd. now httpd service restart is successful and able to see the new custom port in listening list.
