I think this is because my port is used. My port 8080 is used so I try the port 8181 I have no application on the port 8181

in the tomcat server.xml I set the port to 8181 but the problem persist

I find this post:

Alternate port for Tomcat (not 8080) when starting with Maven?

But I have the same problem after launching mvn -Dmaven.tomcat.port=8181 tomcat:run-war

I don't realy understand how to maven is linked to the tomcat server This is my pom.xml

image of Spring Tool Suite and stop application button

In my case looking in the servers window only showed a tomcat server that I had never used for this project. My SpringBoot project used an embedded tomcat server and it did not stop when my application finished. This button which I indicate with a red arrow will stop the application and the Tomcat server so next time I run the application I will not get the error that an Instance of Tomcat is already running on port 8080.

actual error messages:

Verify the connector's configuration, identify and stop any process that's listening on port 8080, or configure this application to listen on another port.

Caused by: java.net.BindException: Address already in use Caused by: org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: service.getName(): "Tomcat"; Protocol handler start failed

I will now be looking into a way to shut down all services on completion of my SpringBoot Consuming Rest application in this tutorial https://spring.io/guides/gs/consuming-rest/

This error basically happens when the specific port is not free. So there are two solutions, you can free that port by killing or closing the service which is using it or you can run your application (tomcat) on a different port.

Solution 1: Free the port

On a Linux machine you can find the process-id of port's consumer and then kill it. Use the following command (it is assume that the default port is 8080)

netstat -pnltu | grep -i "8080"

The output of the above-mentioned command would be something like:

tcp6   0  0 :::8080    :::*      LISTEN      20674/java

Then you can easily kill the process with its processid:

kill 20674

On a windows machine to find a processid use netstat -ano -p tcp |find "8080". To kill the process use taskkill /F /PID 1234 (instead of 1234 enter the founded processid).

Solution 2: Change the default port

In the development process developers use the port 8080 that you can change it easily. You need to specify your desired port number in the application.properties file of your project (/src/main/resources/application.properties) by using the following specification:

server.port=8081

You can also set an alternative port number while executing the .jar file 

- java -jar spring-boot-application.jar --server.port=8081

Please notice that sometimes (not necessarily) you have to change other ports too like:

management.port=
tomcat.jvmroute=
tomcat.ajp.port=
tomcat.ajp.redirectPort=
etc...

you can configure another port number in your IDE /src/main/resources/application.properties

server.port=8081

otherwise right click on the IDE console tab and select Terminate/Disconnect All

Right click in console and click Terminate/Disconnect All option.

OR

Click on 'Display selected console' icon on top right corner of the console window and, choose and terminate the console which holds the port still.

You can resolve this following these steps:

  1. Right click on the project you are running.
  2. Click on Run as and Run Configurations from the option.
  3. A new run configuration will open. Under Spring Boot Tab see for Override properties.
  4. Add the property-value pair as server.port=8181, or any other port of your choice. This will override the default port which is 8080

It is really old question. Maybe this is usefull. Focusing in your title problem, it is how I start my applications and then I can easily shutdown them. Change the port number for each application you want to start as mentioned above.

application.properties

#using curl -X POST localhost:8080/actuator/shutdown to avoid:
#netstat -ano | find "8080"
#taskkill /F /PID xxxx (xxxx stands for PID)
management.endpoints.web.exposure.include=*
management.endpoint.shutdown.enabled=true
endpoints.shutdown.enabled=true

add this dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-actuator</artifactId>
</dependency>

Now you can shotdown easily by

curl -X POST localhost:8080/actuator/shutdown

I was looking for a solution for Windows but didn't found any. Finally, figured out that that there is a dangling java application using the port. Maybe it's the earlier instance of the spring application and ended the process.

I used tcpview from Microsoft. It shows services/applications using which port on your computer.

enter image description here

You can end the process. And Done!

This is because the port is already running in the background.So you can restart the eclipse and try again. OR open the file application.properties and change the value of 'server.port' to some other value like ex:- 8000/8181

In Eclipse, if Spring Tool Suite is installed, you can go to Boot Dashboard and expand local in explorer and right click on the application that is running on port 8080 and stop it before you re run your application.

Just met same problem.

Finally I found the process running on 8080 was owned by other user, such as root. which caused I (user dev) can't find it by lsof -i :8080 or lsof -t -i :8080 -s TCP:LISTEN.

user_42511140

I was getting same issue, i.e. protocol handler start failed. Cause was port is already in use. I found whether the port was in use or not. It was. So I killed the process that was running on that port and restarted my spring boot application. And it worked. :)
