There few typo error....

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class demo {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        WebDriver driver= new FirefoxDriver();
        driver.get("http://localhost:8080/Chaitanya");
        driver.findElement(By.name("username")).sendKeys("login");
        driver.findElement(By.name("login.password")).sendKeys("password");
}

if Still same error occurs. Please update Selenium Jar to latest( http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/ ), and update Firefox browser to latest version.

I had same issue in my recent project (FYI: issue is caused by port) , fixes for this is:

Try to update latest version of selenium, this should fix it. if not, dirty work around for this is

    WebDriver driver;     
    try {
    driver = new FirefoxDriver();
    }
    catch(Exception e) {
    driver = new FirefoxDriver();
    }
