Error with Arduino/Processing Serial Communication

I am relatively new to both Arduino and Processing and I have been working on a code that utilizes serial communication between the two. My Arduino code is reading and printing values from a piezo sensor and then sending the values to Processing, which sketches certain shapes based on the values. The code has worked previously, but for some reason it is no longer working. Everything compiles, but when I run the Processing code the sketch window is empty and remains empty. A few times the "error, disabling serialEvent()" showed up, but I just unplugged my Arduino board, closed out the programs, and restarted everything. The error no longer shows up, but my Processing sketch is still not displaying on the screen. Can someone please let me know what is wrong with my code? I really appreciate the help.

Arduino Code:

int ledPin = 13;
int knockSensor = A0;
byte val = 0;         
int statePin = LOW;   
int THRESHOLD = 5;  
int sensorReading = 0;

void setup() {
 pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); 
 Serial.begin(9600);       
}

void loop() {
 sensorReading = analogRead(knockSensor);    

  if(sensorReading > 0){
   Serial.println(sensorReading, DEC);
   delay(100);
  }
}

Processing Code:

import processing.serial.*;

Serial port;

int centerX = 550;
int centerY = 400;

float val;
float ellipseX;
float ellipseY;
float ellipseW;
float ellipseH;
float ellipseXX;
float ellipseYY;
float ellipseWW;
float ellipseHH;
float lineX;
float lineY;
float lineXX;
float lineYY;

void setup(){
  background(255);
  size(1100,800); 
  frameRate(10);
  smooth();

  String portname = "/dev/tty.usbmodem1411"; 

  //String portname = Serial.list()[0];
  port = new Serial(this, portname, 9600);
  println(Serial.list());
  //port.bufferUntil('\n');
}

void drawEllipse(float val)
{
  if(val > 0 && val < 50)
  {
    ellipseX = random(540,560); 
    ellipseY = random(390,410);
    ellipseW = val + 10;
    ellipseH = val + 10;

    stroke(0);
    fill(random(255), random(200,255));
  }
}

void drawLines(float val)
{
  if(val > 50 && val < 70)
  {
    lineX = random(500, 600);
    lineY = random(360, 440);
    lineXX = random(500, 600);
    lineYY = random(360, 440);

    stroke(0);
  }
}

void drawEllipse2(float val)
{
  if(val > 70 && val < 120)
  {
    ellipseXX = random(460, 640); 
    ellipseYY = random(330, 470);
    ellipseWW = val + random(20);
    ellipseHH = val + 10;

    stroke(0);
    fill(random(50, 100), random(50, 100), random(50, 100), random(220, 255));
  }
}

void serialEvent(Serial port) 
{
  String inString = port.readStringUntil('\n');

  if (inString != null)
  {
      val = Float.parseFloat(inString);
  }

  drawEllipse(val);
  drawLines(val);
  drawEllipse2(val);
  println(val);
}
