Hi Folks,

I have just installed Ampps, I hope to use Concrete 5 but when I try to start everything I get the above message "port 80: is being used by another application" does anyone know how to get around this please?

Hi,

Open command prompt(start -> run -> cmd) and type the following command :
C:\> netstat -aon | findstr 0.0:80

Last column of the output is the PID of the application using port 80.

You can find the application name in Task Manager. Go to Process Tab then in Menu Bar of Task Manager go to View -> Select Column -> Check "PID" and press Ok. Search for the PID in the list(Click Below "Show processes from all users" in case if you don't find the PID), corresponding process is the application which is using port 80. Stop or Uninstall it to make your AMPPS Apache work.

Please let us know if you still face the issue.

Thank you, Tidus. I did this and it came up in Task Manager as 'service' which didn't help a lot. I uninstalled Skype as I found out this can use the ports. I then went into Apache and altered the configuration. I found reference to Port 80 and changed this to Port 8000. I then restarted the computer and Ammps and got another message saying that Port 443 is already in use. I tried to find reference to this in the Apache configuration but there is nothing there. Do you have any further ideas please? Thank you.

Hello Tidus,

after resetting, Apache works! Must have been Skype that messed it up. Now have to figure how to get Concrete 5 up and running using Ampps. I will go and look to see if there are tutorials. Thank you again.

Hi,

Good to know your apache is running. But see to it that it listens on port 80. We haven't tested scripts on port other than 80 yet.

So only the stack should be able to run properly now and some few scripts. We don't recommend using other port.

You can change settings in skype, not to use port 80 and 443.

yes you are right, I couldn't get it to work like this. I reset the configuration back to the original and it started, so it was Skype. Using Port 8000 my Browser (Firefox) could not find anything.
I have just started my computer again, the Port 80 error came up although Skype is uninstalled but, Apache has started! I can't find what other program uses Port 80 because Currports (a program I am using to track port use) says there are many unknown programs using Ports 80 and 443, Firefox is also using these Ports which may be because of Ammps but also cmdagent.exe is using the Ports. This is part of the Comodo anti-virus system which I rely on.
It does actually seem to be working, I can get through, no sorry Apache has turned itself off! I can get through to Ammps Home and to the Concrete file but it will not accept my user name or password.
I will now have to try and re-configure Comodo to see if I can get this away from these Ports. I don't understand it because Comodo and Skype worked ok together on these Ports so why won't Ammps? It may be better to build alternative Port settings into Ammps if this happens a lot? Sorry to be a pain in the bum.

At last I figured out what I had done wrong! I let Ampps instal itself in the Program file as it tries to do ie. /program files/ampps  what it should be is C:/ampps
I have installed Concrete5 and it allowed me to set up the Username and Password. It didn't do this before and there is no 'Port 80 in use' message  :)   I am what we call in the West of England ....A Turnip!
Thank you for your help.

Hi!

In my case, the process using port 80 is SYSTEM. Is it safe to terminate that? or  else is there another way in which I can make ampps work?

Thanks!

Hi,

It is not safe. Look for the services in Services Control Manager (Start -> Run -> services.msc)

Refer this post for solution.

Hi Tidus! I reinstalled the ampps and no error on Port 80 but the admin page together with the othera shows a blank page.. :(

I tried this "C:\Ampps\php\php.exe" -c "C:\Ampps\apache\php.ini" "C:\Ampps\ampps\softaculous\enduser\install.php"

but it says: Could not open input file: C:\Ampps\ampps\softaculous\enduser\install.php

What should I do in the error then? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
