I have to kill java.exe when restarting

Every time I restart bootRun, I have to kill all java.exe tasks. If I don't the server will not start back up. The server appears to have completely stopped before my attempt at starting it back again.

I figured out a way to fix this. Apparently this is more of a problem with gradle and Spring Boot than anything else. If I start the application by running the class with the main() method, I can easily start and stop it without ever having to manually kill the Java.exe task running.
