Just tried to install XAMPP 170 onto a Windows 2000 Laptop,
to use it for local demo's
I am sure that this must be on the message board, but when I did a search I got so many hits, I could not track them all.
Issue is the Apache Cannot Start because Port 80 and 443 are in use
I ran XAMPP-CheckPort and it said that
APACHE (HTTP) Port 80 in use by C:\WINNT\System32\inetsrv\inetinfo.exe
and
APACHE (HTTPS) Port 443 in use by C:\WINNT\System32\inetsrv\inetinfo.exe
Not my laptop, so cannot just stop this, but are there any settings in config files I can change to use alternative ports?
(Currently the Apache Config file just says Listen 80)
Or would I have to stop the application that is using these ports?
If it cannot be resolved then fine, I'll just have to use a different machine for demo's.
....Just added this thought!
The laptop is running IIS so I am thinking that this might be what is causing it.
Still no wiser to alternative other than stopping IIS .
Any guidance other than pointing me to some manual to read would be good.
In the mean time I will have a look around myself for an answer
