Newbies Richard McG Posted July 29, 2004 Newbies Share Posted July 29, 2004 I did a reinstall of FM Server 5.5 on a NT server and when I attempt to start the FileMaker service, I get a message "The FileMaker Server service returned service specific error 51" So now FM will not run for me and I am stuck. Any help greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacey Tan Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 I believe it is the port error. You have to open the port that the FM is using to broadcast to the network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies Richard McG Posted July 30, 2004 Author Newbies Share Posted July 30, 2004 I don't believe it is a port problem. When FM was initially installed on this server, no ports were opened and it has operated flawlessy for a number of years. The error is occuring when I attempt to start the FileMaker service.

Wim Decorte Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 This is a 15 year old thread and a 19-year old software product - I don't think you'll get more traction. What OS are trying to install on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
