Android - could not install *smartsocket* listener

Question

When I try run my Android application I get this exception:

Error while waiting for device: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to create Debug Bridge: Unable to start adb server: error: could not install smartsocket listener: cannot bind to 127.0.0.1:5037: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. (10013) could not read ok from ADB Server * failed to start daemon * error: cannot connect to daemon 'C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\platform-tools\adb.exe,start-server' failed -- run manually if necessary

So I try do it manualy with these commands:

adb kill-server

• response: * server not running *

adb start-server

• response was next exception:

*daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 * error: could not install smartsocket listener: cannot bind to 127.0.0.1:5037: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. (10013) could not read ok from ADB Server

*failed to start daemon * error: cannot connect to daemon

I looking for adb process in my task manager but not running. Any ideas? Thanks.

Answer 1

Open command prompt and enter following command

netstat -ano | findstr :5037

This will show procees id

TCP 127.0.0.1:5037 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 832

832 is procees id

Now run command

tasklist | findstr processID (e.g tasklist | findstr 832)

It will show process name like bash.exe

just go to task manager and end the task bash.exe and use following command to start adb

adb start-server
