  • Create bat file.

There probably is already a proces claiming the Blynk port. There are three options I think

  1. Blynk is already running, are you sure it’s not running?

  2. Change Blynk port in server.properties

  3. Check out with “netstat -an” if the port is in use. Output will be similar to:

    MacBook-Pro-van-Bastiaan:~ bastiaanvisee$ netstat -an
    Active Internet connections (including servers)
    Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address (state)

    tcp4 0 0 192.168.0.27.49678 208.113.168.54.443 ESTABLISHED
    tcp4 0 0 192.168.0.27.49673 17.252.43.246.443 ESTABLISHED

    tcp4 0 0 192.168.0.27.49659 104.236.231.79.80 ESTABLISHED
    tcp4 0 0 192.168.0.27.49629 74.125.136.113.443 ESTABLISHED

It’s from a Mac, but Windows will show you about the same. if you do “netstat -an | findstr 8443” you can filter on a value, I’m not sure what check the Servers makes, but I bet it’s the App port which defaults to 8443 :slightly_smiling:

Btw, there are many options for running a file as service on Window, e.g. this: http://www.howtogeek.com/50786/using-srvstart-to-run-any-application-as-a-windows-service/

thanks for the quick replay.

how i change the blynk server port?

You change it via the server.properties file. In the documentation is an example, but before you that I would really find out why it doesn’t start. It’s no use if it happens the next time again.
