Hi everyone,
I currently run Vista Home Premium with no other webserver software instaleld on the machie. I have the firewall completely off and run ESET NOD32 antivirus.
What's happening now is when I try to install xampp everything goes fine until apache tries to install itself as a service. This is when I get an error stating "Port 80 or 443 is already in use. Installation failed!" I'm trying to host a webserver locally and view the webpage locally by accessing http://localhost and http://127.0.0.1
What's strange is I tried to scan my loopback and didn't find port 80 open. I haven't tried to install this on XP but I have high certainty that it's something with my PC and Vista.
Thanks for the help all.
