Apache :: running IIS and apache

I am running IIS - would this be the problem? If not, how do I check what might be running port 80? Can I reconfigure httpd to a different port?

Thanks so much ...

Flo,

Yes, IIS by default is setup to use Port 80, as do most (if not all web servers).

Yes, Apache (httpd) can be setup to use a different Port.

There are a variety of ways to setup IIS and Apache, but both cannot use the same Port.

Rather than ellaborating on All the ways this can be accomplished:

what do you need from IIS?

What do you need out of Apache?

Is there an actual need for both?

What are trying to accomplish with your web server(s)?

This will help the people here help you.

I am testing out someone else's software - they wrote it in PHP, tested with Apache. The people we are giving this to run both IIS and Apache. So, the simple answer for me, I think, is to remove IIS since the folks we are giving the software to presumably run both cleanly. I am obviously new to all of this stuff - and so appreciate the confirmation of what I suspected.

Thanks again -

To change the Port from Apache look for listen 80 in httpd.conf change it to the new port i.e. listen 8080
