Wiremock- standalone jar --port option not working

Question

I'm new to wiremock, and I'm trying to use it to record the requests & responses of a java application. I am using standalone wiremock jar for this. Below is the command I am using

java -jar /jenkins/tools/wiremock-jre8-standalone-2.26.3.jar --proxy-all=http://server1:33898 --root-dir=src/main/resources/testRecordings/$tagName/recordings/${scenarioName} --port 9523 -verbose

Now http://server1:33898 is successful and page opens successfully, but for some reason http://server1:9523 does not load the page. I guess it means the wiremock server is not being created.

I did netstat -tuplen to check if the port is in listening status on server1. And I noticed that it was listening.

tcp6       0      0 :::9523                 :::*                    LISTEN      1000       418954126  39650/java 

Why is the wiremock server not getting created on port 9523 and http://server1:9523 not work despite giving --port option in java -jar code snippet above?

Answer 1

Are you able to load http://server1:9523/__admin ? Also, since you have --verbose, what port do you see once the Wiremock has started? Once it starts, it displays port number like below
