You have another process that bind on port 55400. Does this still occur after a reboot?

netstat --listen --tcp -n -p
and kill -9 the process listening on 55400

Port is not occupied

[rmica]

I've never experienced this. The "address already in use" error means that the listening IP/port is in use by some process. Just try to see if non-listening sockets are using it (netstat -tnap | grep 55400).
