The above errors is caused because pbx_exchange is not running.

vxpbx fails to start because it is unable to listen to 127.0.0.1:1557, 1556 ports with error "Exchange cannot listen on legacy port 1557 for service registrations."

1) Check the VxPBX.cfg file and make sure it looks like this

# cat /etc/vx/VxICS/VxPBX.cfg
[VxPBX]
"Insecure"="1"
"AuthUsers"="root"
"InstallPath"="/opt/VRTSpbx/bin"
"PortNumber"="1556"
"DebugLevel"="10"


2) Make sure the network interface lo0 is config with 127.0.0.1, localhost resolves to this IP and localhost is pingable. Confirm ports localhost:1556 and localhost:1557 are not used by some other application before starting vxpbx. 
If required edit /etc/nsswitch.conf file (in HP-UX) as follows so that /etc/hosts file is used for name resolution before dns.

# ping localhost

# telnet localhost
you should be able to connect to the same box locally.
 

# netstat -an | grep 1556

3) After starting vxpbx, ports 1557 and 1556 show listning with netstat command output:
# /opt/VRTSpbx/bin/vxpbx_exchanged start
# netstat -an | grep LIST | grep 155
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1.1557 *.* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 *.1556 *.* LISTEN
