Allen-Bradley · MicroLogix 1400 Programmable Controllers

What does ERR_SOCKET_UNLISTEN mean?

An error occurred during the socket unlisten operation. This indicates a failure to properly stop listening for incoming connections, which could leave resources held or in an unstable state.

Common Causes

  • System resource conflict preventing the release of the listen socket.
  • Internal operating system error during the unlisten process.
  • Modbus TCP port is still actively being accessed by other processes.
