That last line is the problem.
You are telling the agent to use the same port when
listening for AgentX connections, as when listening
for SNMP requests. This won't work.

You don't need to set the agentX socket unless you
deliberately want to listen on a non-standard port.
When you start experimenting with a new setup,
it's always sensible to keep things as simple as possible
until you're happy with the basic operation.
