  <p>I am getting this error on the console when opening <code>Eclipse</code>:<br> </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>"Could not open Selected VM debug port (8700). Make sure you do not have >another instance of DDMS or of the eclipse plugin running. If it's being >used by something else, choose a new port number in the preferences." </p>

  <p>pretty sure <code>DDMS</code> is the Andoid debugger, and I am also pretty sure it is not turned on. Does anyone know how to solve it?</p>
