ChrisThanks. By the way, how many other people are getting copied into these emails?
Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services lists the services but not the ports, if any, being used Hence I cannot seem to see which are using Port 80 there The httpd.conf file has "Listen 80" in it, and 80 after the Servername.I haven't particularly edited it, but installation seems to have put the correct "DocumentRoot" entry. I have now changed the Servername and ServerAdmin to actual web addresses but that hasn't made any difference.
A clash with the Firewall was expected and is referred to on the web site. My question is really how to detour it for local use only and without disabling the firewall.

ChrisThanks, doesn't seem to be the answer here. Re-installed Apache, same errormessage re port 80, otherwise Apache installer reports success. But no short-cuts, etc, anywhere. No error.log file. Turned off computer. Restarted. Used system tray icon for Apache to "Start". Got "The requested operation has failed!" message. No error.log file anywhere.
I remember going thru the same sorts of things. Mine runs fine now but seems to ignore my mime type settings for php and php files come up as text :( If u open up control panel, administration, services, are there any other servicves, such as tomcat, running and using the port? also, make sure when u reinstall that u select the option for everyone and port 80. In one of my reinstalls I discovered it had port 8080 set by default. if all that is correct, have u modified the httpd.conf yet? If so there might be an error in setting for htdoc or php. chris

Perhaps with my PC-Cillin Firewall, or some other program. I had this problem and it worked after rebooting, with no changes to firewall or anything else. cheers, chris > > But: > 1) I don't want to lose my virus protection/firewall facilities > 2) I don't have a domain name for the internet anyway > 3) I only want to access the server from my own computer > > What do I do next? > > Thanks > Peter > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
