I got this error once for putting the remote in the -L parameter, also the 0.0.0.0 is redundant you can omit it with the same results, and I think you should add the -g for it to work.

This is the line I use for tunneling:
ssh -L 8983:locahost:8984 user@remote -4 -g -N

-4 tells to use only ipv4
-g Allows remote hosts to connect to local forwarded ports.
-N Do not execute a remote command. This is useful for just forwarding ports (protocol version 2 only). I use this to clog the terminal so I don't forget to close it since generally I need the tunnels temporarily
