Hi.
I am trying to connect to Ubiquity UAP Enterprise through its software. And always get an error port 8080 is already used by other program. Is any way to close that port? Its opens automatically every time and used by 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 and normally in listening status.
Thank you.
 
Solution
Open a command prompt (DOS window) and issue a netstat -b command. It should list the application that is using that port. You will then need to close that application down before running your Ubiquity software.

First, it's best to see what might be using port 8080 first, so open up either Powershell or Command Prompt and type:

netstat -a

Have a look through the list and see if anything's showing as using port 8080.
