| 1. Looks like you have some other web server running on your machine.
Look out for IIS etc.
If they are running then stop them.
2. Try 'netstat -an' to corner down the rogue server.
3. Alternately try this:
Before you start apache issue the below command
"telnet localhost 80"
If you do not get below the error message, it indicates that there's a
rogue webserver runnin that you are not aware of.
'Connecting To localhost...Could not open connection to the host, on
port 80: Connect failed'
Now find what is the process holding on to port 80.
4. All the best. Also next time around post more details if you can, eg
what you tried, what did'nt work etc etc. This gives a indication
whether the user is a novice one or not. More the details, more easier
for others to help. Post again if you still have problems.
Cheers,

| Hi,
Firstly u have'nt given me all the details, for eg what ur installing
(are u installing tomcat too - coz of 8080), what is the OS and what
exactly is the problem, do u have a firewall installed (McaFee or
Norton etc). Is ur windows fire wall disabled. What all have u tried.
So considering that I don't exactly know the problem, I can suggest
the following
1. Stoping other webservers:
After u restart ur machine and before apache is started
In cmd prompt do
telnet localhost 80
If it gives the error
"Connecting To localhost...Could not open connection to the host, on
port 80: Connect failed"
then ur machine is clean of any other intruding webservers.
If it does not give the above error, in that case ur machine has a
rogue webserver.
Theres no direct way of cleaning them up, firstly try removing any
obvious ones by uninstalling them if they exist. Eg: IIS could be the
culprit, uninstall it.
If nothing works change the http port to say 2345 in httpd.conf and use
apache.
2. Please check ur firewall settings, they could be a cause. It is
really silly but a great many of us have spent a great many hours
getting apache to work, when at the end of the day it's a firewall
problem. Thank BillG for that.
