Installing HHVM error

Question

I am trying to configure my server running on Ubuntu 14.04 to use HHVM. I've had no issues actually installing it but getting it to run is a another story. I tried the command recommended by Sara Golemon and received the below error from the following command:

hhvm --mode server -vServer.Type=fastcgi -vServer.Port=9000

Error:

Could anyone help me get this running correctly?

Answer 1

That error is due to something else (perhaps php-fpm) already bound to port 9000. You can stop that process (something like lsof -i | grep 9000 will tell you what it is), or use a different port (say, 9001) for HHVM.
