Apache Trouble...

[chipmonk010]

i keep getting this measage every time i try to install the apache service on my XP machine.

only one usage of socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted. : make_sock could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listing sockets availiable, shutting down
unable to open logs

i tried changing my ip in the config file i tried port 8080 what could be causing this?
thanks in advance

Its apparently still trying to use port 80 as the port in which it serves files.


# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, in addition to the default. See also the <VirtualHost>
# directive.
#
Listen 80
#Listen 12.34.56.78:80


Make sure the Listen command is set to 8080 if that's what you want to use.

Also make sure this is not set to 80:

# Port: The port to which the standalone server listens. For
# ports < 1023, you will need httpd to be run as root initially.
#
Port 80

It also might be helpful to ctrl + f and search for 80 and make sure nothing else in the config file is trying to get it to use that port.
