When I first started cassandra, I started as- Cassandra -f
So I believe that's why it is getting started as service. Whenever I reboot my machine, Cassandra is up always. I am not able to find that process in windows to shut it down. I tried finding 7199 port but not able to find that one out. In the service management also, I am not able to figure out what service I need to stop. I cannot find any service related to Cassandra. Any thoughts? *Raihan Jamal* On Wed, Apr 17, 2013 at 12:43 PM, aaron morton <aa...@thelastpickle.com>wrote: > Error: Exception thrown by the agent : java.rmi.server.ExportException: >> Port already in use: 7199; nested exception is: >> java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind >> > The process is already running, is it installed as a service and was it > automatically started when the system started ? > > either shut it down using the service management or find the process > (however you do that in windows) and kill it. > > Cheers > > ----------------- > Aaron Morton > Freelance Cassandra Consultant > New Zealand > > @aaronmorton > http://www.thelastpickle.com > > On 18/04/2013, at 4:26 AM, Raihan Jamal <jamalrai...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello, > > Can anyone provide any help on this? > > Thanks in advance. > > > > > > > *Raihan Jamal* > > > On Tue, Apr 16, 2013 at 6:50 PM, Raihan Jamal <jamalrai...@gmail.com>wrote: > >> Hello, >> >> I installed single node cluster in my local dev box which is running >> Windows 7 and it was working fine.
