Running netstat -a returns a list of all active connection on my machine. in this list i have :
[b]proto local address foreign address state[/b]
TCP user-no17xkwc1a:8080 user-no17xkwc1a:0 LISTENING
also i have another list of ports that have foreign addresses as Localhost:portNum with an established state but doesn't have the 8080 port listed. so i'm not sure if this causes the problem.
also, i had a problem of running your command (netstat -an|grep LISTEN|grep 8080).. does that will solve the problem?
Thanks for your help
