Issue/Introduction
Error "xxxx: java.net.BindException: Address already in use".
Resolution
This indicate a port conflict. The port configured for Host/Node/HTTPConnector/Applicaiton is already being used by some other process.
There are two possible resolutions for this issue.
1). Change the configured port to some other free port and try to start the Host/Node/HTTP Connector/Application.
2). Identify the process which is occupying the port and stop that application/process and then try to start Host/Node/HTTPConnector/Applicaiton. To identify which process is using the port, contact your System Administrator for assistance.
The following are a few useful commands for reference.
From the output find out the process associated to the port in question. Stop or kill the process using pid, "kill -9 <<pid>>>".
Solaris:
For Solaris you need to execute the following command as root from a shell prompt.
ps -ef| awk '{print $2}'| xargs -I '{}' sh -c 'echo examining process {}; pfiles {}| grep <<port>>'
