    Is this on your own computer?
     
  4. Only one application can be bound to a port at any time. Failed to bind means something else is using that port. Either find out what the program is and stop it or change your port.

    Windows:

    Go to task manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL) -> Processes tab -> Click button 'show processes from all users' -> End any processes called 'java.exe' -> try running bukkit again


    Mac/Linux:

    Open terminal, run command " sudo killall -9 java "

    ALSO MAKE SURE THAT: You have not set the server-ip in server.properties, the server-ip line should read:
    Code:
    server-ip=
    with nothing after the equals sign.
