Port 8005 is used By Windows 10 System Process

Question

Since today, the port 8005 is used for a Windows System Process. When i try to acces to the url http:localhost:8005 ,i can see a Blank Web Page, with no code and no info from any Web Server (No welcome web page or similar).

With the netstat command i can see that the process that uses this port is System process. Any idea why windows is using suddenly this port?

EDIT: Not duplicate question. I don't have another Tomcat installation, the problem comes from a windows process, not for another tomcat instance.

Answer 1

Check if port 8005 is really in use by Windows :

Install and run Sysinternals TCPView and Check if the line with "Local Port" 8005 has as "Process" System

Or check the file c:\\Windows\\CCM\\Logs\\DeltaDownload.log for port 8005

If the port is in use by system, go to Computer Management and stop the service "SMS Agent Host" or open a command prompt as administrator and type: sc stop CcmExec

Answer 2

The problems comes from a Windows Service:

Not from another Tomcat instance.

Answer 3

I too was facing the same with windows 10 and ran the command netstat -a -b which showed CmRcService.exe is using the port 8005 on the machine.

The most weird part is sometimes if i hit localhost:8005 in the browser url its asking for username and password to access the page and in the developers tools I cannot see any application name or data whatsoever
