Answer 1

The problem is caused because the address you use to start tomcat (in normal or debug mode) is already taken by another process.

You need to check the ports you are using in the you conf file (e.g. your_TOMCAT_HOME_DIR_/conf/server.xml), to see if they are not already used

Here you can look at the port used for

• starting Tomcat: default value 8080
• stopping Tomcat: default value 8005
• using with AJP protocoll: default value 8009

and if you are using Tomcat in debug mode (through jdpa or jdwp ), please make sure to use a different port than all the previous configured ports
