Hello, so I have had my own "private" server for a while, and just recently, every time I have been trying to start it... I get this message:
The server could not be started, reason:Failed to bind to port
This is probably caused by another server that is running already.
Kill all java instances, and retry to start this server?
I'm not a very good with servers, and this is the first successful server I have set up (for building etc.) I am using the BukkitGUI, and again, this is a recent problem I have been having, and I would like to know how to fix the issue. I don't have any other servers running, and even re-downloaded everything to see if that would fix the problem (it didn't).
Thanks in advance!

this is probably a really stupid suggestion.
but have you tried restarting your computer? lol
you can A: dig around in the task manager (right click your task bar to access it and then go to the 'processes' tab) and end all java processes to make sure another server isn't running by accident
B: are you running something else (a game/service) on that port? if so then end that program or change the port your server is using
or C: have you tried restarting your computer? this will essentially restore your computer to a "default" state and if it still doesn't work then you must have a program running which is using the port you specified for your server. so you would then proceed to follow B
