Apache2 Start Error

[Jame]

When I run '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart' I get this error:

(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80

Anyone know what is causing this or how to fix it?

Is something already using port 80? I got this error a long time ago and in my httpd.conf file I commented out this line:

Listen :80

and restarted apache. It worked fine.

Yes.. its and old error.. I think.. tor suggested the fine way.. try it..

I got a similar error in c# when I tried making a server that listened on port 80, and port 80 is opened by default on the school computers! And I think that the error was very similar to that one, so yeah maybe the port is already opened.

yeah, that port is already been used. Try doing the command, netstat. Try to see if there is port 80 running.

Maybe you should post your apache2.conf to resolve the issue. If you did something with it, try to get back on your previous settings.
