I am trying to set up Apache but port 80 is being used by another service or...  and i cannot find what is using it, or blocking it.  I use port 8080 to listen on, and it is ok, but port 80 gives me an error. I used netstat to try and find out what the problem is, but it does not list port 80 as being used by anything. Any ideas?????

Now is seems to work THANKS I will investigate why if i can....

Thank you, for some reason it is now working.  I looked at all the port usage and nothing is using port 80, and previously i did try this by setting "listen" to 8088, with no results, now after rebooting several times (probably not necessary, just a habit from MS) it seems to work with http://localhost and not using :8080 to specify the port.  Anyway, a lot learned today, so now i can move forward.  THANKS.

Part of the command line error message is "Cannot open logs" Apache cant open error_log, but error_log.1 has: [Sat Dec 23 15:35:25 2006] [notice] Apache/2.2.3 (Fedora) configured -- resuming normal operations [Sat Dec 23 15:35:25 2006] [error] Failed running '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/../../bin/mod-mono-server --filename /tmp/mod_mono_server__XXGLOBAL --nonstop --master (null) (null) (null) (null) (null) (null) (null) (null)'. Reason: No such file or directory [Sat Dec 23 15:36:02 2006] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down Systeminternals is windows only as far as i can see... In Linux i tried using netstat -lnp and it gave me stats on IP and Ports.  port 80 is not being used. screen shot attached [attachment deleted by admin]

I have the same issue, same error message, changing listen to "listen 80" still did not help.  Still cant make it run...

I have abandon Monolith Slavery for the real world of Linux now back to being a nube. OS: Fedora 6 Apache 2.2 Hardware: i386 directly connected to cable modem, with dynamic IP (stable/almost static for now) Firewall clears port 80 Installs OK, and will stop and start (httpd -k stop...) but if i edit system-config-httpd.conf and enter "Listen" directive, it will not start.  Comment out the "Listen..." and it starts and stops OK. The error i get is: "(99) Cannot assign requested address: make_sock: could not bind to address... If i point a web browser to the IP address it cannot find the server, even using IP:Port it will not work. If i type "httpd" at the command line I get: "(98) Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80" "no listening sockets available, shutting down" "unable to open logs" -t gives me Syntax OK i can't find anything else open, or anything that would be bound to port 80, i also tried to set config to use port 8088, but same results. but then i am a Linux/Apache newbe.... As i see it, somehow i need to release the ports for Apache to use?????....
