Address already in use: JVM_Bind java

Question

Some times whenever I restart the application, which is built on Java Struts Mysql and Jboss 4.05 Version I get the error as Address already in use: JVM_Bind

Answer 1

I had the same on Windows. My solution was to get which port the debug wants to connect to. (In IntelliJ a red rectangle already giving the info: "Error running Tomcat: Unable to open debugger port (127.0.0.1:XXXXX): ... Already in use...") Let's say XXXXX is the port number. Then i searched for the problem and the PID in a cmd window:

netstat -ano | find "CLOSE_WAIT" | find ":XXXXX"

I got the PID number as the last number in the result line. (Let's say YYYY) Finally:

TASKKILL /PID YYYY

An extra info: Winscp logged out meanwhile, probably it was causing my problem. :)
