7.7.8: Wappler php Server does not reset

After changing projects the Wappler built in server no longer resets. Works properly for first project to open after starting computer. Switching projects creates this error in the console.

[Thu Mar 26 13:04:32 2026] Failed to listen on 0.0.0.0:3000 (reason: Address already in use)

The only way to get rid of it is to restart the computer.

Can you not kill/restart it from the bottom toolbar?

Tried that several times. Makes no difference. I even tried restarting Wappler and Quiting Wappler altogether and restarting. The server instance isn't being killed.

You probably have a php zombie process preventing the start of Wappler php server.

So check for any php processes running in the activity monitor and kill them first
