Resolving port 5500 not free issue during Oracle 12c Release 2 Database Configuration Assistant installation on CentOS

Background

I am attempting to install Oracle 12c on CentOS 7 (deployed as a Hyper-V virtual machine) as outlined by this installation guide.

Problem

Everything with my installation goes well except for the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant.

The installation provides me with the following messages:

1. ACTION: Specify a free port
2. Action - Refer to the logs or contact Oracle Support Services.

Debuging Information and Actions Attempted

When I run a tail on the error log I get the following messages related to the installation:

INFO: ... GenericInternalPlugIn: getting configAssistantParmas.
INFO: ... GenericInternalPlugIn: checking secretArguments.
INFO: ... GenericInternalPlugIn: starting read loop.
INFO: Read: [FATAL] [DBT-06103] The port (5,500) is already in use.

WARNING: Skipping line:    ACTION: Specify a free port.

Running sudo netstat -anp | grep 550 returns the results below:

unix  3      [ ]         STREAM     CONNECTED     37299    5502/gnome-pty-help
unix  3      [ ]         STREAM     CONNECTED     37283    5501/gconfd-2
unix  3      [ ]         STREAM     CONNECTED     37287    5501/gconfd-2

To try and remedy the problem, prior to subsequent fresh installation attempts I commented out the following statements in my services file as displayed through running cat /etc/services | grep 550

I have additionally attempted to do step 5.1 of the installation guide prior to the installation with no success.

Question

Why am I getting an error that the port isn't open when it doesn't seem like anything is using that port and how to I remedy this issue?

Is there are method that can be used to change the port from 5500 to a complete different one? I'm just trying to get a dummy database installed for the HR schema.
