Apache/2.2.13 : Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 error

[Ravi Roy <ravi.aroy@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

 

I installed Apache/2.2.13 (Unix) on CentOS 5.4. My prolbem is that when I try to start and stop it using "sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start / stop / restart"
It gives me the following, I googgled a lot but could not really find a solution.

 

1.Command : $ sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start

 

Error Message :

 

Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
                                                           [FAILED]

 

2. Command : $ sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd stop

 

Error message :

 

Stopping httpd:                                            [FAILED]

 

3.Command : $sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart

 

Error message :

 

Stopping httpd:                                            [FAILED]
Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
