changing the address port of Google App Engine - Eclipse

Question

Is it possible to change the port address (8888) of Google App Engine ? If yes, how do I to change the port address ?

IDE : Eclipse 4.3

Because I always got when I try to debug my webapp :

Could not open the requested socket: Address already in use: bind

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

From the documentation. You can add the argument ( under Run configurations --> Arguments )

--port=1234

Now when the address is in use you have something either already running on that port, which usually is another instance of GAE, make sure to close all running instances from the eclipse console, then try again. Or just check whats using the default port by going there in a browser.
