How to start internal PHP server on port 80 instead port 8000

[Alex11]

I'm novice in PHP and can working only with VS Code debugger. Unfortunately my current project can not working with port number, it can working only as http://localhost/folder-name and can not working as http://localhost:8000/folder-name

I don't know how to force embedded PHP server working with port 80 (in order to use PHP extension for VS Code - "All-in-One PHP support - IntelliSense, Debug, Formatter, Code Lenses, Code Fixes, Linting, Refactoring, PHPUnit Tests, Web Server, and more.").

I would assume you would change your .ini file to 8000 instead of the default 80?  Have you given that a try?

I want to click in VS Code and receive result in port 80, not in 8000.

I'm not sure, is this port defined in my PHP.INI or in something another place?

You need to alter your run configuration in VS Code to pass the -S argument to php.exe. That customizes where it listens on. You'll want "-S localhost:80".

It really shouldn't matter. Why does it not work?

Ups, Thank you, I understand place to insert 80. This is launch.json.

 

    "configurations": [

        {

            "name": "Launch built-in server and debug",

            "type": "php",

            "request": "launch",

            "runtimeArgs": [

                "-S",

                "localhost:80",

                "-t",

                "."

            ],

            "port": 9003,

            "serverReadyAction": {

                "action": "openExternally"

            },

            "runtimeExecutable": "D:\\PhpCli7\\php.exe"

        },

 

"Why does it not work?", I don't know, I'm newbie, and Author of my program said me that start his program impossible on another port than 80.

Hmmmm. Unfortunately this simple way don't working. I stop Apache, but permission to port 80 still denied . Why?

In your Apache Httpd.conf file, there is a place to set this.  I'm new to much of this, but since you mentioned it.

Fine

# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to 
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.
#
#Listen 152.37.156.203:1000
Listen 80

and probably change that to 8000.  Just trying to help solve the issue; by no means a professional at this... especially since I don't work with VB.  Just change that info; stop Apache and then restart. Good luck.

To @XCalibre3 My Goal is shutdown Apache and full uninstall it. And than start PHP DEVELOPER server on port 80 instead 8000

Linux requires root for access to ports below 1024.

In my experience with PHP and APACHE, if you want port changes, they are in the ini files that are in the Apache php.ini.  I could be way off as I have never dealt with what you are trying to setup, so I hope it helps.
