127.0.0.1 can't be reached with apache running - apache

I set apache server to run on 8080 and 4433 ports (I changed all the references on 80 port in configuration files as well as all references on 443 port so apache can start). And in XAMPP application it says that apache server is normally running. MySQL server is running as well. There is a solid connection with internet so connection isn't a problem. But when I tried to access 127.0.0.1 this message appeared on display:
This site can’t be reached
127.0.0.1 refused to connect.
Try:
Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
How to solve this issue?

Apache won't re-read it's config file automatically after you change it so make sure you've restarted the service.
Also enter the url as http://127.0.0.1:8080 so the browser knows to connect on port 8080 rather than 80.

Apache Proxy to Wildfly

I Have configured Both Apache and Wildfly to use AJP in order to achieve the Proxy so i can produce Access-logs
Acccess Logs are Enabled from management profile of Wildfly
Port is listening on 8009
Apache has a Virtual Host listening on port 80
configured with the ProxyPass command.
Access Pattern is configured
and the result is receiving logs that have been proxied but not the original client ip is diplayed but only the loopback of 127.0.0.1
So am asking about a way to reveal the client Ip that requests the Apache Server.
syntax is okay and %a does display the 127.0.0.1
Thanks!
I have tried multiple access patterns (%a,%h,{i,xxx}...
I have tried both X-Forward-For ,X-Forwarded-For on Apache PreserveHost On etc..
I have tried tcpdump the port 8009 receiving 0 packets on the monitoring

Problems with Apache Tomcat and Wamp

this is probably a noob problem but I can't get this to work. The Apache on wamp is currently on Listen 8080 because the regular localhost wouldn't work. However when I turn on Tomcat it is also on 8080 which is conflicting with wamp. I am connecting to Tomcat via Eclipse plugin. With Tomcat on I can't get into phpmyadmin on wamp.
Apache's httpd.conf in wamp is set to:
Listen 8080
ServerName localhost:80
Only with this setting I can get wamp to work.
localhost:8080 will work and 127.0.0.1:8080 works as well. Turning on Tomcat will automatically override wamp's settings. How can I get wamp to just be a regular localhost address and not have it take an 8080 port where Tomcat is sitting on?
try to change the port tomcat is using.
Go to conf folder in tomcat installation directory
e.g. C:\Tomcat 6.0\conf\
Edit following tag in server.xml file
Change the port=8080 value to port=80
Save file.
or another solution is , you can change your wamp port from 8080 to any other one...

Apache is running but i cannot connect to local host

I have installed xampp on windows 8 and apache could not start and connect on port 80.
I changed the port to 1337 on the httpd.conf. Apache now starts on xampp and shows that it is running on port 1137 and 443 but when i type localhost on Google chrome i getan error message stating Google chrome could not connect to localhost.
can somebody help me please.
since you changed the port from standardport 80 you have to type localhost:1137
When you type
http://localhost
on your browser, it connects to port 80 by default. and
https://localhost
will connect to port 443 by default. Since you've changed the port numbers, you have to use
localhost:1137
or
https://localhost
in your browser.

Browser can't find localhost while Apache and MySQL are up and running

I have reinstalled my Xampp Application, Apache is running on port 443 and 8080, MySQL is running on 3306.
If I go to Localhost, it still gives me a 404 Error while it should give me a message like "You have succesfully installed Xampp!"
What can be the problem?
If you omit the port, http uses port 80 by default and port 443 for https.
So try to call
http://localhost:8080
or
https://localhost
If this does not help you should check the accesslog of your webserver.

WAMP apache httpd.config and hosts - how to alias localhost to port 8080?

Ok so I configured my apache installation on Windows 7 such that it listens on port 8080 by changing the respective entry in httpd.config.
I was too stupid to realize that now I have to access localhost with :8080 at the end.
Question: is there a way to have my box automagically resolve localhost to 127.0.0.1:8080 ? I don't like haviog to type :8080, and NO I CANNOT change the port to 80, I need that one for firewall.
Thanks
no. hostnames have nothing to do with ports. You'll have to specify the port yourself, or set up a proxy on the usual port 80 that will do the 8080 requests on your behalf. ... or bite the bullet and use port 80 directly and move your firewall elsewhere.
