Exception when I try to run Alfresco on my tomcat server

[widadcadi]

**Hello,

I got an error when launching Tomcat with startup.bat **

• Error: Exception sent by agent: java.rmi.server.ExportException: Port already in use: 50500; nested exception is: java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind *

** and when I look for the process that uses this port I find nothing **

• netstat -ano | findstr 50500 *

This seems like a java rmi monitoring port. It may have been in use when you start tomcat and failed somehow. 

try restarting your machine and see if that works. 

worst case change the port in global properties:

monitor.rmi.service.port=50508
