| Hi there,
Winx XP Prof with IIS running.
I need to install Apache on my PC but also need to keep IIS. From what I
have read, this is possible, by having, say, IIS on port 80 and Apache on
8080. At what stage during installation of Apache can I choose this?
It is possible to install Apache with IIS running?

On double clicking the .exe, a dos window called Apache should come up
and stay up.

When you start Apache, the dos window should stay.
Davide will probably help you further with the configuration (I'm not
really good at that), but I just wanna tell you, that other programs
can interfere too. I use Skype, which has a setting to use port 80 in
certain cases. If I use that setting, and start Skype before I start
Apache, the dos window comes and goes quickly - meaning Apache can't
start, as port 80 is in use already.
Telling this just in case you may have another prog using port 8080
for some odd reason.

But that doesn't mean the use of port 8080 is the cause! I'm too much
of a newbie to know of all the other possible causes. I run Apache on
XP Home, but I don't have IIS running.

You can type netstat at the command prompt, but it only shows the
ports that are really in use. For instance right now I have Apache
running atm, but netstat doesn't show port 80 there.
You might wanne do something else:
Open a command prompt window, and start Apache from there. That way
the window will stay open and actually tell you why Apache can't
start.

If you get a home page, it's running.

Installing it as a service means it runs all the time when the computer is
on, even if nobody is logged on. Right now, you're running in manually, so
it's not a service. If you want it on all the time, install the service.
Otherwise, it's fine as it is.

Els,
I think I have discovered part of my problem ...
Not only did I change the port tp listen to, to 8080, I also added it to
IIS. I removed it in IIS and changed it to 81. When I now type
http://localhost:81/ in my webbrowser, the Apache "home page" displays.
Is Apache running now? When I hover my mouse over the "Apache Service
Monitor", it says that there are no services installed. Is this correct?
Sorry for all my questions, but I am a newborn to this - ± 2 hours old
now.

Davide,
thanx for the prompt reply.
I have just installed Apache 2.0.53
How can I be sure that it's running. I have changed the listen 80 to
8080.
When I put in my browser (Mozill FireFox) http://localhost:8080/ it
prompts me for a password; something it has never done before.
Also, when I select "Test Configuration" from the start menu, a dos
windows appears briefly and goes away.
I did restart after installing Apache.
I will really appreciete your help here. I have almost un-install IIS in
an effort to get this working.

OK, that makes sence.
How do I install it as a service? I cannot remember having that option
when I installed Apache.

There are several options when you install it. Complete documentation is
available here:

OK, I got it and installed Apache successfully on port 80 as a server.
What I cannot figure out now, is why my browser prompts for a username &
password when I want to browse http://localhost:8080/
It doesn't prompt for a password when trying to browse http://localhost/
(which is now Apeche.)
