solutions

Continua CI uses WCF between Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) between the agent and the server, if the clocks of the agent and server machines are too far apart (more than 5 minutes), the agent will gets an exception while registering :

...

The resolution is to ensure the server and agent machines time is the same. Note, this is a common cause of other security issues on windows domains. You network administrator should be able to solve this so that all machines get the same time from the domain controllers.

There is already a listener on IP endpoint 0.0.0.0:9002". You may see this error if WCF was not fully disconnected when the agent service was last shutdown. The only solution we have for this at the moment is to restart the server.
