tomcat server does not start in eclipse

Whenever i try to run my servlet program on the server, it shows this error:

Several ports (8005, 8080, 8009) required by Tomcat v7.0 Server at localhost are already in use. The server may already be running in another process, or a system process may be using the port. To start this server you will need to stop the other process or change the port number(s).

I tried changing the port numbers but still there is issue with the port number. What should I do?

If nothing works, end all services which are active and using that port. Usualy port number 8080. Also, you can do this:

right click proj-> properties-> Targeted Runtimes -> tick tomcat version on your pc or create new one
