Could not bind to port 10070 (Address already in use) in Iplanet webserver?

Error: ADMIN3603: Error while starting the server:
warning: CORE3283: stderr: In jk_init.
startup failure: could not bind to port 10070 (Address already in use)
failure: HTTP3127: http-listener-1: http://localhost:10070: Error creating socket (Address already in use)
failure: HTTP3094: 1 listen sockets could not be created
failure: server initialization failed
Solution:
The above error occured due to port conflicts .
Note : Make sure to check if there is any another process being used by the same port in the server if not below
1)Issue the follwing commnad to find the iplanet child processes :
ps -ef |grep webservd or ps -ef |grep InstanceName
2)kill all the child processes relatd to that instance using kill- 9
3)start the sever instaces which will resolve the issue.
