error running EpiServer project: Impossible to lunch the ASP.NET development server, because the '6666' port is used

Hi,

I am trying to learn how to develop an EpiServer project.

when i run the project i've got this error message:

 "Impossible to lunch the ASP.NET development server, because the '6666' port is used."

and there is no port opened with # 6666

i know this because i runned (netstat -an | find "6666") with no result !

Any idea ?

Tanks for help !

Are you using Chrome? Try to start the website on another port. Right click the project and choose 'Properties' then go to the 'Web' tab and choose a specific port.

Thanks for your answer

The problem apparently is independant from the port number

I modified the number to many unused ones but the error message remain the same !

 "Impossible to lunch the ASP.NET development server, because the 'XXXX' port is used."

Am i messing something here ? or what !

We've had this on several server 2003 and XP boxes, but not ever on a Win 7 box (I am talking about CMS 6 btw).  Fustratingly, if you go to create a standard .NET project (rather than an Episerver one), you should have no issue (or so we found consistantly on each and every build).
