generally, use “netstat -lpn | grep 8080” (or whatever port number) to find out what process is already listening on that port. This kind of thing happens all the time.

FWIW, netstat is considered legacy and deprecated. The in-vogue way to do the same thing is ss -lpn | grep 8080.

netstat like ifconfig still works and is shipped in the net-tools package if you like it but if you’re learning it’s better to build a habit with ss and ip right away.

“netstat -lpn | grep 8080

That’s a bit cleaner than sudo lsof -i :8080. It always amazes me tho, how many different commands/ways there are in Linux to get to the same spot.
