I created a php socket server for group chat and I am trying to run it on Linus(centos) + nginx, and I have been trying for about 3 days without success. It keeps giving me this error

Warning: socket_bind() [function.socket-bind]: unable to bind address [98]: Address already in use in /home/wwwroot/chat/ws-api.php on line 96

I searched on line and, I tried to change port number many times with many different port numbers, no success. I tried to run it through command line (CLI), no success. I tried to run it directly through the browser, no success. Please tell me how am supposed to solve this problem. Thank you!

Please check current used ports using

netstat -tlnap

and check if other services are using the same port. If yes stop that service and start nginx
