I tried to use a different port number and in debug mode and the output is shown here

No there are no other tests or applications running on port 4444. I even tried restarting my machine just to confirm. Here is the error again when i tried to start it using port 6565 and in debug mode

Update #19:37 OK another update - if i change the browser from *iexplore to *iexploreproxy it seems to work. Is there any reason for this?

Update #21:45 I tried to donwload an older version of Selenium RC and the older version (0.9.2) works fine. Its possible that this is something that affects just the new version.

An observation is noted in the command used to run your html suite: can you try the following command:

java -jar selenium-server.jar -htmlSuite *iexplore "http://localhost/app" "testsuite.html" "testsuiteoutfile.html"

Note1: make sure you are referring to the correct path where your 'testsuite.html' is located. Eg: "C:\testsuite.html"

Note2: Same applies for the output file too, make sure you refer to the specific directory where you want to save your result.
