Xampp can't start up Apache

[Beauseant]

It seems to be a regular problem that people can't get Apache to work with Xampp, because their port is already being used (port 80). The point is that i can't see anything at CMD that shows that the port is already being used. I tried to set the port on another port like 85, and that didn't work. So i tried to set it on 8016, but that didn't work also. When i tried to manually boot Apache at the Xampp folder i started to get the following error: 'Could not bind to 0.0.0.0.:443' is there any way i can fix this? Or is there any like other program that lets me use MYSQL and Apache at the same time? Please respond, i need some answers because i'm new to all of this.

So my question is, is there any other program? Or way to fix this? I've reinstalled it 10times today...

No. Because they don't read the error messages.

So, what do you type in your command line? wrong port? wrong flag? wrong command? thats all possible, but you don't give any info about that.

I tried to set the port on another port like 85, and that didn't work.

Which is the correct behaviour in your case. You changed the wrong port.

When i tried to manually boot Apache at the Xampp folder i started to get the following error: 'Could not bind to 0.0.0.0.:443' is there any way i can fix this?

Sure. Read this error message very very slowly. The number after the colon is the port number. So, what port is it? correct. Your SSL Port is blocked by another program.

Apache needs two Ports in the defualt configuration. One for HTTP communication and one for HTTPS/SSL communication. The configuration for SSL is in another configuration file.

Thanks for the reply, but port 443 isn't in use. I checked it at cmd, so i don't know what to do, seriously i've tried nearly everything.

I don't want to repeat myself.
Without to know what you type in your command line to chack the port, it is impossible to say if this info is correct.
Apache tells you, that this port is in use.
