Hi I'm using activemq for our project and every time I run activemq in our local network but I'm always getting this error even though nothing is running on port 61616

2013-04-03 08:48:28,139 | ERROR | Failed to start Apache ActiveMQ (localhost, ID:batag-1562-1364950107650-0:1). Reason: java.io.IOException: Transport Connector could not be registered in JMX: Failed to bind to server socket: tcp://0.0.0.0:61616?maximumConnections=1000&wireformat.maxFrameSize=104857600 due to: java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind | org.apache.activemq.broker.BrokerService | main java.io.IOException: Transport Connector could not be registered in JMX: Failed to bind to server socket: tcp://0.0.0.0:61616?maximumConnections=1000&wireformat.maxFrameSize=104857600 due to: java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind

I tested on other routers, sometimes it does work but most of the time I get this error.

clearly something is running on 61616, probably activemq, although you think not. Check with netstat -aot | find "LISTENING" (Windows - similar commands exists for other OS). Then you can figure out which process is using this port – Petter Nordlander

I had the same issue, nothing was showing up with netstat.

Solution was to disable "Internet Connection Sharing" service.

Go to Control Panel -- > View Network Connections --> Right click on your connected network and click on properties.

A new pop up window appears. in that window select sharing tab and disable network sharing.

Automatically 61616 port will released. and you can start activemq
