Tomcat not starting (throwing java.net.BindException: )

Question

I have done the following settings to run a Java web project but somehow my Tomcat is not starting from Eclipse:

JAVA_HOME : C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.6.0_         


        

Answer 1

kill the respective (listening) process on this port i.e. 8009. use

netstat -a -o -n

to look for the PID of the process. It may look something like this TCP [::]:8009 [::]:0 LISTENING 892

use the taskkill command to kill the process. example:

taskkill /F /PID 892
