Then do not set the TServerSocket's Active property to true at
design-time.  Set it to false instead, and then set it to true in code
after you have changed the Port.

You did not say whether you are using the server in blocking or
non-blocking mode.

You set the Port to a value that is already in use somewhere else on
the machine.
