Changing the agent port

If the agent is being installed on a server where port 5555 is already occupied, the agent port can be changed after it is installed.

To change the port on Windows operating systems:

  1. Open the registry editor: Click Start > Run, and then type regedit.
  2. Go to the BuildForge Agent registry location specific to your system:
    • On 32-bit OS, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BuildForge Agent.
    • On 64-bit OS, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWAREWOW6432Node\BuildForge\Agent.
  3. Change the value of AgentPort to the port number you want.

On UNIX, Linux, and Macintosh operating systems:

  1. Open the /etc/services file.
  2. Change the value of BuildForge Agent Port to the port number you want.
