How do I resolve the “java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind” error?

Yes you have another process bound to the same port.

TCPView (Windows only) from Windows Sysinternals is my favorite app whenever I have a JVM_BIND error. It shows which processes are listening on which port. It also provides a convenient context menu to either kill the process or close the connection that is getting in the way.
