Every time I try to start Apache, I get the following error:

 

Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted.  : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0:80

 

...and then Apache shuts itself down.

 

Um, help?  I'm using a brand-new computer and just freshly installed Apache, but I have no idea what's going on with the error message or why Apache won't even run.

It means that port 80 is already in use.  It could be IIS or a different Apache install, or Apache could already be running... So on.

 

 

If you're under Windows, look at control alt delete and see what's in there, and if anything looks like it would be using port 80.

 

 

If you're under linux, just run ps -A and look for Apache or something similar.
