Why this error?
I have two Azure virtual machines (VMs) under the same resource group. Both the VM status is “Running”
- MyNewAZVM
- MyNewVM
Both VMs use the same port, “3389,” so here is the problem. Both are fighting for the same port, “3389”.
The second VM also uses the same port
Solution
To fix this error, I have stopped one of the Azure virtual machines I am not currently using.
To stop the virtual machine, go to the Overview tab, click on the Stop button, and then click Yes to confirm.
Now, you will see that the VM status is stopped(Deallocated). Check out the screenshot below.
You can assign a different port to the other VM or delete it if you are not using it.
Don’t assign the same port to the virtual machine and two different apps.
When I tried connecting to the other Azure virtual machine, I could connect without any issues.
