    Hello, i have problem with my bukkit server. (Sorry if my English is bad)
    When i run my server i get the following error message:

    [WARNING] **** FAILED TO BIND TO PORT!
    [WARNING] The exception was: java.net.BindException: Cannot assign requested address: JVM_Bind
    [WARNING] Perhaps a server is already running on that port?

    This happens even when im using hamachi.
    I've tried to download a new fresh vanilla server, but i still get the same error.
    I have also tried to leave the server-ip= blank in the server properties, but i still get the same error!
    And also it won't work to portforward anymore... Im 99% sure I've portforwarded correct, and it worked fine before.
    I have tried canyouseeme.org, but it only says error.
    I tried to start the server without internet, but it did still not work.
    My router name is Zyxel P-2812HNU-F3
    So please help, me and my friend wants to make a let's play. Thanks :)

    I'm guessing your port is in use by something else, or you may have multiple instances of your server running.

    Have you tried a simple computer restart?

    No i don't think so... There is no other java.exe processes running, and i'm pretty sure i don't have anything else running on port 25565

    Yes, I've had this problem for weeks.

    I also forgot to mention i'm on windows 7, 64-bit

    this is not a solution, but this way you can troubleshoot a bit:
    - change the port in server.config to another one (25566 or something)
    - forward that port
    - connect with ipadress:port

    does that works? if so, it's clear that someone else on your netwerk is using the 25565 port.

    No, it didn't work. I realised that i can't portforward any port anymore.

    What do you mean you can't? Don't you own the router?

    I mean it don't work, but it did before. But can this have something with my anti-virus program to do? I think i got the problem after i installed Norton.

    Er Nortan doesn't effect port forwarding because I've been using Norman for years never had that problems
    Check out my guides in my sig

    Norton is more like a virus to your computer than a virus scanner/protection =D

    Yes download revo uninstaller: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html and use that to remove norton. (like I said, it acts like a virus..) and install something free like AVG or microsoft essentials.

    Zip
