Do you have any program running that could possibly be using port 80? If so, disable that program (or atleast change the port the program uses) Regards, mschol -----Original Message----- From: Sergey Pustovit [mailto:psergeyv@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: zaterdag 17 mei 2008 5:37 To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: question Hello, I am new to the Apache. I am trying to learn how to build the my own website. I installed the Apache and having problem staring it. The responce that I get is: "sergey-pustovits-macbook:Desktop sergeypustovit$ /apache2/bin/ apachectl start (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80 (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 no listening sockets available, shutting down Unable to open logs" I did try to follow the two suggestions you have on your website to solve this problem and I do not really understand in what directory should I be to start this thing. thank you Best Regards, Sergey Pustovit psergeyv@xxxxxxxxx --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
