(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 80 [resolved]
Description: hi there, was wondering if you could help me with this error i am getting. i was trying to restart my apache server on my linux machine when i got this error i have never seen before, can anyone tell me what this error means?
Cause: This problem is caused by another service listening to TCP/IP port 80. Solution: 1. $ sudo fuser -k -n tcp 80 $ sudo/etc/init.d/httpd start 2. Change the listen port in the httpd config file to 81, by doing this we want to see which service is using port 80. just do the following command as root : #netstat -tlp after running the command.

Third solution is to change binging address in your httpd.conf like this: Listen 127.0.0.1:80 ( that means: instead of Listen 0.0.0.0:80)
