I can't seem to get the released version of Web AppBuilder installed as a service. I had to change to port 3347, since the beta version ran on 3344. Don't know how to release that port. I can get the new version running from the startup.bat file after changing the port. I can also get the service installed, but it won't start. Is it because it's trying to use port 3344? Where can you change the port when you install as a service?
This install is a major pain in the rear.

Evidently this is still a problem. I would call it a bug in the WAB-Dev startup.bat.
startup.bat tells me port 3344 is in use, when it isn't. It is detecting a false positive based on a process ID with the number "3344", not the port 3344.
When I kill the process ID #3344, the startup.bat works again.
