[THREDDS #IJD-492214]: Error using WMS request in TDS 4.3.16

Hi Egil,

Something must not have shut down properly.  If you take a look at 
catalina.out, you will see the following:

The bit about "Bind exception: Address already in use" means that something was 
using port 8080 and the operating system could not give it to your server when 
you started it up.  This sometimes happens when a java process hangs onto the 
port from a previous instance of the TDS or from another application.  To 
remedy this, you'll need to shutdown Tomcat, then verify that nothing is using 
port 8080.  It would also be good to verify that you don't have  zombie java 
processes running.

In Windows, you can use the command:

netstat -a -n -o | findstr 8080

to find the process using port 8080.  The last number of the response is the 
process ID (PID) of that process.  The command is similar in Unix, but varies 
depending on your particular flavor.

Sorry to send you back to the beginning, but we need the Tomcat to start up 
correctly before jumping into the later issues.

Regards,
  Lansing
