cl8onb Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 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?????

neylitalo Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 Can you give us the error? Also, give us the output of [code]$ netstat -l --numeric-ports[/code] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btherl Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 A shot in the dark.. apache needs to start with root access in order to bind port 80 (though it will usually change user later on). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
