Confluence appears to be binding to both addrs even though the address is specified in the connector

Hello,

I'm looking to run Confluence on an existing web server that currently uses IIS. I've added a second NIC to the server, and assigned another address to it. I added the "address" parameter to the "Connector" block in the server.xml file, and restarted Confluence. I am able to browse to Confluence on the new address, but I am unable to start my IIS sites that use the same port, but are bound to the other address. It appears that Confluence is binding to the other address as well even though I've specifically told it to bind to a different address.

 

Any help anyone can provide would be really helpful. I am running Confluence 6.9.3

@Eric_Thompson Please make sure that IIS is configured to bind the sites to specific IP addresses. This screenshot has an example: IIS screenshot.

It sounds like you configured the address parameter properly, based on Apache Tomcat 8 Configuration Reference.

Is there any way there is a second connector in your Confluence server.xml that does not have an address defined and hence binds to all IPs on the host?
