Apache Friends Support Forum

Hi,
I am using the xampp for my codeigniter php application.When i started the xampp ,apache was running on port 80 and port 443 which was usual but after some time i checked ,it was not running on port 80,443 but on 58580 and 58595 which is strange.so what can be the cause and others my colleagues are accessing my application on port 80 which i was bypassed in firewall. so i have two question :-

1.why port changed? and is this usual?
2.if its usual,as i bypass port 80 in firewall and now port is changed so do i need to bypass new ports too?

In some cases the XAMPP control panel is not able to see the correct ports used by the component. Is is an incorrect value (which can also change from time to time).
Your Apache is listening on port 80 and 443 if you have not changed that in your Apache configs.

best wishes,
