I try to run a local tomcat7 server from my Eclipse on port 443. But when I try to start it I get the following error:
Port 443 required by Tomcat v7.0 Server at localhost is 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 looked around and saw a few answers to similar questions but can't get it to work.
I tried running Eclise as ROOT
$ sudo open /Applications/Eclipse.app
I also made sure that nothing is running on port 443
$ lsof -i :443
This returns nothing
When I go to 127.0.0.1:443 (http and https), I get the following result:
This site can’t be reached 127.0.0.1 refused to connect.
my local tomcat (defined in Eclipse) server.xml:

I am wondering if MacOs is running something on this port that I can't see. Or if there is some kind of loop in my configuration which tries to connect twice to the port.
I am using MacOs-Sierra
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
