What do you have in your application.conf?

[torres]

ktor {
    deployment {
        port = 8080
        port = ${?PORT}
    }
    application {
        modules = [ com.example.ApplicationKt.module ]
    }
}

[torres]

@Viktor Petrovski

[Viktor Petrovski]

Can you check if port 8080 is already taken on your machine?

[torres]

i checked already and its not taken

[torres]

i even changed port to anything other than 8080

[torres]

does it work fine on your machine?

Try removing

@Suppress("unused") // Referenced in application.conf
@kotlin.jvm.JvmOverloads
