Failed to bind to port Error
This message has nothing to do with your router or port-forwarding settings.
The most common reason is that another instance of the server is already running on the same port. If you can’t find the corresponding console, the server might have crashed. Contact us for assistance.
This issue can also occur if you're not connected to a network. Ensure you're connected to your router and follow these steps:
Restart your computer.
Run the command ipconfig to renew your IP configuration.
Go to the Network and Sharing Center and choose the option to troubleshoot problems. Although the Windows troubleshooter isn't always reliable, it can help establish the connection.
Ensure your network drivers are correctly installed.
