Unable to start server after reboot.

I rebooted my computer earlier today and when I went to start the Mirth server I was met with:

WARN 2007-04-18 15:52:25,129 [Thread-0] org.mortbay.util.ThreadedServer: Failed to start: [email protected]:8443
WARN 2007-04-18 15:52:25,146 [Thread-0] org.mortbay.util.ThreadedServer: Failed to start: [email protected]:8080
WARN 2007-04-18 15:52:25,162 [Thread-0] com.webreach.mirth.server.Mirth: Could not start web server.
org.mortbay.util.MultiException[java.net.BindException: Address already in use:

There is much more that followed, but I hoped this would be enough.

I halted and restarted the Mirth Service and attempted again. I am unable to get the server running.

I looked at Active Connections with NETSTAT -ANO and saw that 0.0.0.0:8443 and 0.0.0.0:8080 were both being listened to by PID 3316 which turns out is java.exe.

Possibly an associated question: Is there a gentle way to halt the server before rebooting? The only way that I saw was to close or x-exit the cmd window.

Any thoughts or questions?

Thanks,

Re: Unable to start server after reboot.

If you install Mirth as a service, you do not need to run the Mirth Server.bat. The service starts up the service in the background. The service will handle the shutdown of the server gracefully. Also, hitting the "X" on the cmd-window will send a halt signal to Mirth for a graceful shutdown. Windows might report not-responding, however just let Mirth finish and it will close automatically.
