    Hello,

    I'm having some issues with starting Apache - I am running Windows XP SP2

    I am receiving this error:
    
C:\xampp\apache\bin>httpd.exe -k start
(OS 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port)
is normally permitted.  : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:443
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
    Code (markup):
    I searched all the files for '0.0.0.0:443' but was unable to find it... don't know what's going on.

    Can anyone shed some light?

    Thanks,
    Lang14

    Port 443 is for https. Are you running a secure server?
    Did you check the httpd.conf file for the Listen directive? You may already be defining port 443 somewhere else in the file. You could also try applying the Listen directive to only bind to a specific IP address.

    I'm not trying to run a secure server. Is it possible to turn this off?

    Its just a personal web server where I can play with PHP. What will binding it to a specific address do?

    I had the server working before on port 15000 - (80 was being used) so I have

    Listen 15000

    in the httpd.conf file - but its still trying to boot at port 80...

    First verify that you have the ssl_suport in conf set at off

    Second look at your ip addr (ipconfig /all) and listen on this ip address instead of listening on any interface ( 0.0.0.0 ) second verify that the port youo are using is not assigned ( netstat -an) cause the error say exactly that your are trying to use an already asigned port address on the specified interface.
