Issue/Introduction
When Web Ui (formerly WCC) is installed on the same machine as the AutoSys Web Server, and is configured to use port 8080 in non-SSL mode, it is unable to startup complete saying port 8080 is already in use. The Web Server is configured to use port 9443.
Cause
The AutoSys Web Server is configured to use port 9443. However, it is also configured to use port 8080 but redirects it to port 9443. Therefore, if you attempt to start a WCC that is configured to use port 8080 on the same machine and the AutoSys Web Server is already running, WCC will not be able to grab port 8080 since it is already in use.
Resolution
Either WCC or the Web Server will need to be reconfigured to use a different port so that there is no conflict.
If you prefer to change the port for WCC, follow the steps in this product documentation link...
