Hi.

I've recently tried to install Apache onto windows xp unsuccessfully.It does install to an extent but when I test the configuration, there is a syntax error on line 212 of the httpd.conf file explaing that the port seems to be out of range. The problem appears to be with my server domain, but I can't work out what it is!If anyone could provide me with any ideas or clues as to what the problem is,that would be great.I can provide more information if necessary.Thanks for your time.

You would need to provide a detailed list of what steps you took and what you entered to get specific help. Also, telling us of an error on a line in a file does not provide any useful information without posting that line and a few lines before and after it.

 

If you are just installing Apache on your computer for learning/development/testing, all the default settings that are presented during installation will work. About the only problem you could expect is if you already have some software listening on TCP/IP port 80 (the default port for http requests.)

 

You normally don't need to touch the httpd.conf file until you install PHP.
