Reason:

1. There may be another server is running, which used Managed server port. Usually it will be 9704.

2. May be Admin server is started on one IP Address and Managed Server is starting on another address. This may happen bcos. In /etc/hosts file in windows/linux. there may be multiple IP Addresses provided than the Server will be ponted to multiple IP Address.

3. May be OBIEE Weblogic instance IP address got changed


Solution :

1. On both Linux and Windows, you need to update your hosts file (/etc/hosts or %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts respectively).
The manual says to put the following in your Windows hosts file, after the standard 127.0.0.1 localhost entry:
127.0.0.1 on Linux or 10.10.10.10 on Windows is common. 

Check you IP address. Verify it ping correctly.

1. In OBIEE FMW, Config.XML file. 

[[$FMW_HOME]/instances/instance1/config/OracleBIServerComponent/coreapplication_obis1 ]

Search for : "FMW_SECURITY_SERVICE_URL" in Conig XML. Verify the IP Address is mentioned is same as /etc/hosts file.

3. instanceconfig.xml file located at 
$FMW_HOME]/instances/instance1/config/OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent/coreapplication_obips1

Verify the IP Address is mentioned is same as /etc/hosts file.

Now Try to Restar the Servers.

Even though if its gives error as

"<Server failed to bind to the configured Admin port. The port may already be used by another process.>

Need to check which server is using port.


Linux :

netstat -an <port number>
or

netstat -anp | grep LISTEN | grep $portnumber

Identify the Process. Either stop the Process or Kill the Process to resolve this issue.
