Address already in use: JVM_Bind java

Solution 1:

Address already in use: JVM_Bind

means that some other application is already listening on the port your current application is trying to bind.

what you need to do is, either change the port for your current application or better; just find out the already running application and kill it.

on Linux you can find the application pid by using,

netstat -tulpn

Solution 2:

In windows this scenario happens when Eclipse crashes without a clean shutdown it will have the local Jetty or Tomcat server keep running. When you reopen Eclipse and try to start server again this will lead to the "Address already in use: JVM_Bind"

You can solve this by opening Task Manager and find the javaw.exe process and ending it.

Then you can restart the server on Eclipse.
