Cause

The problem appears to be that a required port for starting WebLogic is already being used:

Caused by: java.net.BindException: Address already in use

Perhaps  a previous server stop or start is holding that port.

Resolution

Try clearing the port already in use by killing existing WebLogic processes, or by shutting shown and restarting the server at the operating system level.

 

If the issue continues contact your WebLogic Application Server support team, as the issue does not appear to be with Identity Manager:
