Port 80 is already in use on your PC.

Most cases you have either Skype installed and working on port 80, or Microsoft IIS is installed and blocks port 80.

about port 80:


i don't have Skype in my PC, and Microsoft IIS is for DataBases,no? I don't have IIS

But, in Windows i have installed WAMP in Disk C: and i use the localhost, and myadmin without problems.

if port 80 is blocked as unlocking?


Thanks for your answers

It is most likely your WAMP server in Windows that is using port 80 (this is assuming you are using Virtual PC 2007 or VMWare that has Ubuntu installed).

If you are using a virtual machine to host Ubuntu, change the network settings in VMWare machine and change the network settings to "Bridged". In Virtual PC 2007, change the network settings to "Virtual Machine Network Driver".

Your (Host)Windows machine and (Guest) Ubuntu Virtual box will have 2 different IP addresses if you are using a router, and you will be able to use both successfully.

------ if the above does not apply ------

change the server settings used by WAMP or XAMPP to use different ports.

i don't use a Virtual Machine for Ubuntu.

i will change the port of xampp, maybe the problem is resolved
