Could not run the sketch. ERROR: transport error 202: bind failed:

Most appropriate sub-area of Processing 4?

PDE

Processing version

4.5.2 and previous versions

Operating system

Windows 10

Bug description

I sometimes get the following error:

ERROR: transport error 202: bind failed: Permission denied
ERROR: JDWP Transport dt_socket failed to initialize, TRANSPORT_INIT(510)
JDWP exit error AGENT_ERROR_TRANSPORT_INIT(197): No transports initialized [s\src\jdk.jdwp.agent\share\native\libjdwp\debugInit.c:734]
Using startup command: D:\Program_Portable\Processing-4.4.10\app\resources\jdk\bin\java.exe -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=8053,server=y,suspend=y,quiet=y -Djna.nosys=true -Djava.library.path=;D:\Program_Portable\Processing-4.4.10\app\resources\core\library;D:\Program_Portable\Processing-4.4.10;
*** ...The remaining paths removed... ***

Steps to reproduce this

1. It happens occasionally, so I can't reproduce.

2. Launch a sketch repeatedly, and it may eventually show up.

Would you like to work on the issue?

Yes, I’d like to help with this

Start in the PDE sketch-launch path and inspect the startup command shown in the report, especially the JDWP transport configuration using port 8053. Repeatedly launch sketches on Windows 10 while observing when the bind fails, and compare the behavior with the linked Discourse topic. Done means the intermittent launch failure is reproducible and its cause or a verified fix is documented.
