When I start Lampp put this:

ceinma@ceinma-laptop:~/Escritorio$ sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start
Starting XAMPP for Linux 1.6.8a...
XAMPP: Starting Apache with SSL (and PHP5)...
XAMPP: Error 1! Couldn't start Apache!

XAMPP: Please contact our forum http://community.apachefriends.org/f/

and I see the file apachestart.log ant this is its content:

(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80

thank you[/b]

Something else is listening on Port 80. Maybe you installed the Webserver from your Operating System.

Run this command:

Code: Select all

netstat -atnp

as root or with sudo. It will show you what program is blocking your Port.
