I would recommend checking out the documentation on the ports if you
haven't already.? This is how users view the images from the camera in a
browser.? e.g. http://localhost:8081?? When setting up for the first
time, I usually recommend using the web stream to validate that the
camera is found and working.
I think that in that version of Motion, the "port in use" message would
occur when Motion is shut down with a ctrl-z.? Others may know of a
better method, I just rebooted and always use ctrl-c instead.?? (I don't
believe this occurs in the current version of Motion)
I'd also comment that version 4.0 is a couple of years old.? You may
want to check the release notes and determine whether you want to upgrade.

Dave,
Thanks for the tips. I think that the problem was due to my having
motioneye running as well: I 'removed' its process by using 'sudo
systemctrl stop motioneye' & 'sudo systemctrl disable motioneye' and
things improved. jpg files were written to my /home/john/motion
directory and the log showed:

I still don't understand why both ports 8080 & 8081 are both used:
please explain as I really don't understand why I get:
[1:ml1] [NTC] [STR] [Nov 11 17:53:59] http_bindsock: error binding on
127.0.0.1 port 8081
[1:ml1] [ERR] [ALL] [Nov 11 17:53:59] motion_init: Problem enabling
motion-stream server in port 8081: Address already in use
In my browser, when I do http://localhost:8080 it shows the same photo
for [2] cameras, one for All & one for Camera1: confusing. In my
browser, when I do http://localhost:8081, it shows one photo, for Camera1.
I find the motion documentation somewhat difficult to understand. It
really needs examples of motion.conf & Camera1.conf etc: one for each
camera type e.g. ip camera, usb camera.
Version 4.0 of motion is the Ubuntu Bionic (i.e. 18.04) supplied
version. I'm reluctant to use later versions of apps not supplied by the
Ubuntu LTS version that I'm using (I upgrade Ubuntu after the second
version of an LTS version is released: normally in late October, due to
the flaky nature of the first release of an LTS version), as I then have
to monitor future versions (i.e. after the version of the one installed
from a downloaded .deb or form a Launchpad ppa) of a particular app. So
I stick with the Ubuntu supplied version unless there is a compelling
reason to upgrade to a future .deb or from a ppa.
