Dear Nate,
Your suggestion is very important for us. You are right, there is other instance of Galaxy to use the socket. I found the ps and kill them, but they are still there, then I using screen -wipe to remove it (I use screen to run the galaxy). It works. Is there any possibly for Galaxy to auto release the previous port and reuse it in the future version?
Have a nice weekend!
Best Wishes,
Yan

Something (possibly another instance of Galaxy) is already listening on the port you are trying to start Galaxy on. You can determine what that process is with 'lsof -i :<PORT>' where <PORT> is the port number you connect to Galaxy on. You may need to use sudo for this to succeed.
Assuming it's another Galaxy instance, you can probably find it with 'ps auxwww | grep universe' and then kill that process.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
