I think the error came coz I skipped (cd openmrs-core/webapp), but it was responding with no file or directory found. ---

Oh sorry @kabiinjuguna. The error is because the port you want to use is already in use. Kindly terminate the process and proceed or use another port i.e. 8081. To kill the port use the following commands: ```auto sudo lsof -i tcp:8080 ``` Replace 3000 with whichever port you want. Run below command to kill that process. ```auto sudo kill -9 PID(enter the PID value reflected after running the first command) ``` ---

Oh sorry! run the commands on the new terminal besides that you are trying to install platform which you are bound to face the following problem as the one reported here: [You cannot view or manage addon manager](https://talk.openmrs.org/t/you-cannot-view-or-manage-addon-manager/31750) at the end. I would advice you install an SDK instance and choose `Distribution` instead of `Platform` . Which will ensure that you have user interface modules. ---
