Bonita BPM: Tomcat port is already in use

Question

I tried running a Bonita instance on my localhost using Tomcat, but I got an error message saying that the Tomcat port is already in use.

I checked in the terminal and found that the port that it's trying to connect to (and said that it's in use) is in use by itself. In other words, the task that is using that said port is the Tomcat instance that I just tried to start.

I have tried restarting Bonita, restarting my laptop, killed the instance that is using the port, to no use. This problem has occurred twice, and before this, I "solved" the issue by uninstalling Bonita + Tomcat and reinstalling it again. I don't want to have to reinstall every time I come across this issue, and I prefer not to change the port number Tomcat uses.

Is there any other way to solve it? Also, if anyone may suggest me what could cause this issue, I would very much appreciate that.

Thank you.

EDIT 1: I'm running Bonita BPM 7.3.2, Tomcat v7, on Windows 10 64-bit

EDIT 2: I have also tried to restart the web server, but it still doesn't work.

Answer 1

Restart your Bonita Studio.
