I'm installing a trial version of the Adobe LiveCycle ES server using JBoss on my system for some development. I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit. I did a turnkey installation. That goes fine. When I run the configuration manager, it gets to the deployment step and the "Verifying ports required by service JBoss for Adobe LiveCycle ES are available" step, and I get this error:
"The following ports required by JBoss for Adobe LiveCycle ES are still in use 8080.
Another instance may be running or another application may be using some of the required ports."
Nothing has port 8080 bound. I've checked with a netstat -a -o command. I can run tomcat and it binds port 8080 just fine. I've disabled UAC (I'm logged in as an administrator), disabled windows firewall, and even uninstalled and reinstalled livecycle. One thing that happens if I restart my computer and try again is that it fails for a different error about being unable to stop the JBoss service. If I stop the service manually and retry, it just reverts to the port error above.
This error is really confusing and I can't seem to figure out how to fix it. I need to get this up and running so I can develop and test my application. Anyone have any insights or suggestions?

Sam:
Chances are that the installer is failing at the stage where it tries to create a Windows service for JBoss and fails. This blog entry here might help:

The JBoss service is there and I can start and stop it manually just fine, though when started going to localhost:8080 doesn't come up with anything so I'm not sure if it's running correctly or not.
I'll check out the linked posts to see if I can find anything useful there.
EDIT: I'm running a 32-bit JVM so the first two links provided were not really applicable. I was trying to work with the last one, but whenever I run the run.bat file in JBoss it just comes back with the crypitic error "\Java\jdk1.5.0_21\lib\tools.jar was unexpected at this time."

I have the same problem trying to install on Vista64. Perhaps it only works on XP and 2003?
"Chances are that the installer is failing at the stage where it tries to create a Windows service for JBoss and fails"
This isn't the installer, it's the configuration manager that runs after the installer.
The installer creates the service just fine. It's when the manager tries to start the service that it fails. If you manually start jboss then run the configuration manager again then it stops at the same point complaining that an instance of jboss is already running. If jboss is already running, why doesn't the installer just skip that stage and continue?
I've found that after starting jboss manually I can connect to the 8080/adminui page (took a very long time to respond the first time I connected), but the default login doesn't work. I assume some extra steps haven't been done. Is there any way to bypass the starting of jboss in the config manager in order to complete the other steps?
I've also tried launching the configuration manager bat file from an administrator mode console, but it fails at the same point.
2 days screwing around with this software, both turnkey and manual on Linux and I haven't managed to get it to work. Quality. Next step will be to see if I can get a copy of XP from the museum and a find machine to run it on.

Has anyone gotten this to work? I'm trying to update my ES2 with Service Pack 1 and I'm still stuck at this screen:
Ok, so I manually stop the JBoss service in Windows Services, as well as shutting it down using the command prompt, then I'm getting this error:
Can anyone please help me??
Thanks in advance!

I am stuck with the exact same error (that port 8080 is in use) Did you have any luck in resolving this problem?
Thanks,

Have you confirmed that the Firewall and/or Anti-Virus aren't blocking the connection attempt from Configuration Manager (a Java process) to the LiveCycle server? If you're not running Configuration Manager on the server, check both the client and server machines.

I had the same problem as you guys on ES3. Stopping and disabling the following service fixed my problem.
"OfficeScan NT Proxy Service"
