Dear Ramkumar Thapa,

I had the same or very similar problem when running from linux 
executables (as available from www.wien2k.at; i.e., I did not compile 
the source). The problem is with structgen. I was unable to pinpoint the 
problem. When I compile everything from the sources, structgen (and 
w2web) works fine. If you're really in a hurry to get started, a viable 
workaround is to copy a valid struct file to case.struct in the case 
directory and then use structgen to edit it.

Note that the port number has nothing to do with your problem. It's just 
  a logical communication channel a where w2web talks to the network.
