[SOLVED] HAProxy cannot bind socket [0.0.0.0:8888]

Issue

I build a HAProxy on CentOS 7 and enable statistics page with port 8080. It seems work properly. When I set port as 8888, the HAProxy is not working and gives me some feedback.
After that, I tried many ways to solve this problem, but the problem is still there.

Does anyone can help me deal with this issue?

Here is the system information

haprxoy.cfg

/etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg
Port 8080 is fine, 8888 is not working.

    # [HAPROXY DASHBOARD]
        listen  stats :8888
        mode http
        stats enable
        stats hide-version
        stats realm Haproxy\ Statistics
        stats uri /
        stats auth haproxy:haproxy
        stats refresh 10s

/etc/sysctl.conf
Someone said that could be a Virtual IP problem, so I follow the instruction and add the setting below then run sysctl -p

net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1
