How do you change the listing port in apache?
Problem detected!
8:05:15 PM [Apache] Port 80 in use by "system"!
8:05:15 PM [Apache] Apache WILL NOT start without the configured ports free!
8:05:15 PM [Apache] You need to uninstall/disable/reconfigure the blocking application
8:05:15 PM [Apache] or reconfigure Apache to listen on a different port

I will need to know how to reconfigure apache to a different port on windows 7.

Thanks
Dick

Hi bddick,

Simplest answer is to find your httpd.conf file and set the port Apache listens on, as explained in the Apache documentation: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/bind.html
