That's Java, not Javascript.

From various searching it seems this error is to do with something else
already having grabbed the port.  Could be an old run of the app that hasn't
properly stopped, a desktop app (eg GNOME's Nautilus file manager likes to
grab MTP devices, which prevents digiKam downloading photos) or a system
service (eg if appears as a HID device, maybe the system USB keyboard driver
grabs it, or a storage device that got automounted).

Depending on what kind of device it appears as (serial, keyboard, mass
storage, network, ...) see if you can work out what other app might have
grabbed it.  ('sudo lsof' is handy here, if it appears as a device node that
you can grep for)
