I just switch to Apache webserver and I receive an error
(OS 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network
address/port) is normally permitted. : make_sock: could not bind to
address 0.0.0.0:443 no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
That is what I have got after running httpd from commandline. I reset my apache documentRoot as well as server's listening port to one that is free to use already, I have no idea about this error with port 443, is it something about SSL ?
UPDATE
I am using XP
For Windows XP
netstat -ano
Find the process id that is using port 443, and kill it using task manager
For me it was IIS using the port.
Copying and pasting your exact error into google gave a couple of answers:
https://wiki.apache.org/httpd/CouldNotBindToAddress
Port 443 seems to already be in use. Possibly by your old server. One of the three covered errors in the official apache wiki above is:
Address is already in use
Something else is already using the port in question.
Run one of the following commands to check if a running process is
holding the port needed by apache open.
On Linux/Unix run
$> netstat -plant
$> # or
$> sudo lsof -i:80
On Windows run
$> netstat -ano
On Mac OS X / FreeBSD run
$> netstat -Wan |grep 80
$> # or, to get the pid
$> sudo lsof -i:80
Once you see these results, you can choose to kill the program in
question, or change the port that Apache uses.
If Apache (httpd, apache2, etc) is the application listening on these
ports, but you can't stop it using your normal procedure, someone may
have deleted the servers PidFile. The PidFile records the process ID
of the parent process and is how most scripts test to see if Apache is
running. You can manually stop the server by determining the PID of
the parent process and sending it a SIGTERM.
For me it was having multiple directives of Listen 443 in my /etc/apache2/ports.conf file. Even though netstat and/or ps showed nothing for 443, it was still trying to listen multiple times, which in turn threw that error.
It sounds like you already have apache running. Use nestat to figure out which process is using 443 and kill it.
netstat -tulpn | grep :443
Then
kill PROCESS_ID
Where PROCESS_ID is the number of the process that is shown when you the netstat command (example: kill 12345).
After that try starting apache again.
I found on my system (Win7) that Skype had taken over the port that Apache was trying to use. In the new version of Skype I haven't yet found the checkbox to uncheck so that Skype doesn't use it (there was one in a previous version). Quitting Skype enabled Apache to start.
port 443 is for SSL. Seems you miss the rights to use that privileged port. Privileged ports are those with numbers below 1024.
Which OS are you using?
Probably something else is already using port 443 and therefore Apache is unable to use it, do you want to use SSL actually ?

I have a very strange problem with my Apache 2.4 working with Xampp 1.8.2 on Windows Server 2008 R2.
When I tried to start Apache server in XAMPP, an error message is shown:
[Apache] Problem detected!
[Apache] Port 443 in use by "Unable to open process" with PID 4!
[Apache] Apache WILL NOT start without the configured ports free!
[Apache] You need to uninstall/disable/reconfigure the blocking application
[Apache] or reconfigure Apache and the Control Panel to listen on a different port
However, the process with PID 4 is system! I've tried to restart my computer and it doesn't work.
I have installed Apache 2.4 via a tar.gz file sereral days ago, and uninstalled it. So, I don't think this behavior will cause the problem.
And here's the result using commond netstat -a -n -o | findstr 443
C:\Users\Administrator>netstat -a -n -o | findstr 443
TCP 0.0.0.0:443 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 4
TCP [::]:443 [::]:0 LISTENING 4
Can you tell me what to do?
Just change the sll port in httpd-ssl.conf file. It would be under C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra.
Find "443" and replace it with other values(e.g 8181), then start your apache again
I had the same problem: port-443-in-use-by-unable-to-open-process-with-pid-4
First I disabled the weather tile in Win* that apparently phones home to Redmond for updates after this showed on netstat list.
This didn't solve the problem. I looked at the post already here which mentioned VPNs, so
I went to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network and Sharing Center and clicked on Change adapter settings
I clicked on Incoming Connections and right clicked on properties
The VPN click box at the bottom of the General tab was on, so I unchecked it
Under Users, I also unchecked a previous user I had allowed to copy some data weeks before
Then I clicked okay
Closed the control panel and restarted the XAMPP control panel
It fired right up without a problem.
Similarly, I experienced this:
Port 443 in use by "Unable to open process" with PID 6012!
When starting XAMPP Control Panel v3.2.1 for the first time.
In Task Manager I found that PID 6012 was Apache web server.
A copy of it was running in the background without the GUI,
and when I invoked the GUI it was trying to start another copy.
Killed the phantom copy and then XAMPP started up fine.
I didn't have to change any port settings.

Simply run as Administrtor "xampp-control.exe"
I had the same problem. Another way to solve this problem when running XAMPP on Windows:
Open a CMD prompt and type in command:
net stop was /y
Run Dialog Box (press keys Win+R)
.. then type: services.msc
I then scrolled down to:
World Wide Web Publishing Service
Double clicked on it and clicked STOP (if this service status is Started)
3.Start Apache again with XAMPP :)
Link Ref: http://www.sitepoint.com/unblock-port-80-on-windows-run-apache/
Some process is using this port, so you can change the port that is used by xampp, to be able to use it.
For this job you have to do this:
1- Open httpd-ssl.conf in xampp\apache\conf\extra
2- Look for the line containing Listen 443
3- Change port number to anything you want. I use 4430. ex. Listen 4430.
4- Replace every 443 strings in that file with 4430.
5- Save the file.
Probably some process is using that port, i would guess you have another webserver running with ssl/tls already. You must trac down what process is using the port and shut it down. The fact that it does not help to restart your computer makes me think that you may find what you are looking for in msconfig. Try to have a look there, open prompt and write msconfig
post 443 is normaly used by secure http, => https
I have never used windows server but there could be some built in webserver that autostarts, have you ever installed another webserver?
Try use the command Netstat -a -n -o to see what process that is blocking. you can the process pid from the output.
The
Routing and RAS - service is your problem i guess look at this post
it does this, thats why its blocking:
SSTP tunneling protocol
Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) is a new form of virtual private networking (VPN) tunnel with features that allow traffic to pass through firewalls that block PPTP and L2TP/IPsec traffic. SSTP provides a mechanism to encapsulate PPP traffic over the SSL channel of the HTTPS protocol. The use of PPP allows support for strong authentication methods, such as EAP-TLS. The use of HTTPS means traffic will flow through TCP port 443, a port commonly used for Web access. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) provides transport-level security with enhanced key negotiation, encryption, and integrity checking.
from tecsupport.ms
Below steps by sztupy worked for me
I went to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network and Sharing Center and clicked on Change adapter settings
I clicked on Incoming Connections and right clicked on properties
The VPN click box at the bottom of the General tab was on, so I unchecked it
Under Users, I also unchecked a previous user I had allowed to copy some data weeks before
Then I clicked okay
Closed the control panel and restarted the XAMPP control panel
I simply went to the XAMMP config button in the XAMPP control panel GUI and clicked on Server and Port settings and I changed the SSL port value.
I had the same problem when I installed xampp on Windows 7. I installed Windows server and Web Deployment Agent Service (MsDepSvc.exe) which uses port 80. So I had an error PID 4 listening to port 80 when I ran apache.
Solution
Open task manager: (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) then find "MsDepSvc.exe" and disable it. Finally restart xampp
ref: http://www.honk.com.au/index.php/2010/10/20/windows-7-pid-4-listening-port-80-apache-cannot-star/
Here it was the "Work Folders" feature having been added on a Server 2012 R2. By default it is listening for HTTPS client requests on port 443 via the "System" process.
There is a Technet blog post explaining how to change that port number. Don't forget to add a corresponding firewall rule for your custom port and disable the existing one for port 443 though.
I got this same error and managed to fix it by closing Skype and running XAMP as Administrator, works perfectly now. So right click THE XAMP icon and click run as admin.
The port is being used by another process,
PID 4 means it is Windows System, you can open a cmd window with "super user/administrator" priviledges and write "net stop http", it will stop all the web services. Then check if it freed the port.
I had the same problem and it happened to be the "Routing and Remote Access Service". You open Services in the windows search, and then look for the specific service name. Change the startup of it to manual or automatic (whatever you decide).
Use some app like TCPView to help what port each App PID is using.
The origin of the problem seems to be Microsoft not knowing what the word disable Microsoft VPN means...
I ran task manager and looked for httpd.exe in process. Their were two of them running. I stopped one of them gone back to xampp control pannel and started apache. It worked.
I had the same problem and solved by doing following.
Go to Task Manager, click on services tab, order by pid's than if you find the related process, kill it otherwise, right click and click on show details, the process should be shown now. order by pid's than kill the related process.
I had this same problem with port 443, process id 4 and everything. For me it was not the VPN using the port, it was IIS. To fix this I opened up IIS and right clicked on my instance and stopped it. Then IIS Express(Or apache if you're using that) was able to use port 443. Hope this helps someone else.
I had a similar issue where port 443 was blocked by PID 4. After breaking my head for several hours I found the command netsh show urlacl which gave me an idea of the system process blocking the port.
To run command run cmd or windows shell in administrator mode.
netsh
http
show urlacl
I got response a which showed 443 was blocked by NT Service SSTPSvc Reserved URL
Response
https://+:443/sra_{BA195980-CD49-458b-9E23-C84EE0ADCD75}/
User: NT SERVICE\SstpSvc
Listen: Yes
Delegate: Yes
User: BUILTIN\Administrators
Listen: No
Delegate: No
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Listen: Yes
Delegate: Yes
With this information I followed the microsoft link to change the listening port for SSTP based vpn. https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/kb/947032
This resolved my port issue.
A simple way to fix this is to change the XAMP port to a random number.
The solution by "Mark Seagoe" worked for me too.
I got a message that "Port 443 in use by Unable to open process with PID 14508".
So i opened task manager and killed this process 14508. This was used by my previous xampp version and it was orphaned.
so no need to change any ports or anything, this is a simple two step process and it worked .
STEPS
Un-install apache(xampp) software from your windows.
Delete the xampp folder from c folder.
Delete the folder from recycle-bin to permanently delete the xampp folder
Restart your computer.
Finally install a clean copy of apache(xampp) software.

I am attempting to install and run apache 2.4 on my windows 7 system
I went to the apache 2.4 bin directory and ran the following:
Note: I opened the cmd window as administrator.
C:\Apache24\bin>httpd.exe -k install
Its output was as follows:
Installing the Apache2.4 service
The Apache2.4 service is successfully installed.
Testing httpd.conf....
Errors reported here must be corrected before the service can be started.
(OS 10013)An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its acces
s permissions. : AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(OS 10013)An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its acces
s permissions. : AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
AH00451: no listening sockets available, shutting down
AH00015: Unable to open log
So it installed apache 2.4 as a service but it could not be started. It seems like the localhost port 80 is being used. Is this what "[::]:80" means?
I then stopped both the the apache 2.0 service which I had left running and the mysql service, hoping stopping one of them might free up localhost port 80.
I also run netstat -o to see if port 80 is being used. It was not.
But, I then found that a process was using the above socket it is a process that is listening on the above socket
TCP [::]:80 User-PC:0 LISTENING 4
I then ran tasklist and found out that System is using pid 4. 4 is under the pid column
System 4 Services 0 544 K
Finally, from the failed attempt to start the service
I got an error which was recorded in windows systems events.

The error from the attempt to start says that beacause of lack of access, make-sock could not bind to sockets which to me looked like localhost port 80. For example,
(OS 10013)An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its acces
s permissions. : AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
Can anyone tell what I am doing wrong?
Sorry for the belabored question. To solve my problem I just told apache 2.4 to listen to a different port in httpd.conf. Since System was using pid 4 which was listening on port 80, I did not want to explore this any further.
I put the following into httpd.conf.
Listen 127.0.0.1:122
The most likely culprit is Microsoft Internet Information Server. You can stop the service from the command line on Windows 7/Vista:
net stop was /y
or XP:
net stop iisadmin /y
read this
http://www.sitepoint.com/unblock-port-80-on-windows-run-apache/
I have the same problem too, after upgrading win7 to win10.
then I check services.msc and found "World Wide Web Publishing Service" was running automatically by default.
So then I disabled it, and running the Apache service again.
Port 80 maybe used by Microsoft HTTPAPI
Try to stop the following service:
Web Deployment Agent Service
SQL Server Reporting Service
SQL Server VSS Writer
I solved this issue finally, it was because of some systems like skype and system processes take that port 80, you can make check using netstat -ao for port 80
Kindly find the following steps
After installing your Apache HTTP go to the bin folder using cmd
Install it as a service using httpd.exe -k install even when you see the error never mind
Now make sure the service is installed (even if not started) according to your os
Restart the system, then you will find the Apache service will be the first one to take the 80 port,
Congratulations the issue is solved.
In my case, it was due to an IP address that Apache is listening to. Previously I have set it to 192.168.10.6 and recently Apache service is not running. I noticed that due to My laptop wifi changed recently and new IP is different. After fixing the wifi IP to laptop previous IP, Apache service is running again without any error.
Also if you don't want to change wifi IP then remove/comment that hardcode IP in httpd.conf file to resolve conflict.
if you are using windows os and believe that skype is not the suspect, then you might want to check the task manager and check the "Show processes from all users" and make sure that there is NO entry for httpd.exe. Otherwise, end its process. That solves my problem.
So, that is why i do a two (or more) post.
I was having the same problem when starting the service (logs can not be opened).
I thought it was because i was trying to have htdocs inside a VeraCrypt encripted container, absurd since i hace such contained mounted and i use a juntion to not affect paths.
The i read the cause could be low ram: after some tests i get to the next conclusion.
Windows is not sending pages to virtual ram to free enough ram if it is a service, for applications it is doing it, i have more than 200GiB of pagefile ready to be used as virtual ram in a 4GiB 64 Bit windows 10.
My solution:
Run a free utility that free ram (512MiB in my test)
Inmediatly after start the service, it starts with no errors
Real Cause:
I was using a virtual machine that uses 1/2 physical free ram (1.5GiB)
Hope this help others.
I was also facing the same issue, then i tried restarting my system after every change and it worked for me:
Uninstall Apache2.4 in cmd prompt (run administrator) with the command:
httpd -k uninstall.
Restart the system.
open cmd prompt (run administrator) with the command:
httpd -k install.
Then httpd -k install.
Hope you find useful.
you can solve it
sudo nano /etc/apache2/ports.conf
and changed Listen to 8080
This may be because of shortage in physical RAM.

How can I configure my Apache server to run on port 80? My Apache service is failing when using Port 80; it says BUSY.
When I change the port in config to 85, Apache works but this requires maunally entering 85 in the address bar every time with localhost.
I have tried to find out which program is using port 80 but I cannot come up with anything. I first entered netstat -n -a -o -p TCP in cmd and I came up with this information
Local Address 0.0.0.0:80 State: Listening PID: 4
Then I entered tasklist in cmd trying to figure out which service is using this port. Looks like "System" is on PID 4. I have configured Skype to not use port 80 without any luck. I have Microsoft WebMatrix installed on Windows 7 and I even deleted IIS 7.5 Server Express to free this port but all to no avail.
Can you guys please help me out? I am using Windows 7 and XAMPP.
Several programs can block that port. Candidates are:
Skype
Web Deployment Agent Service (can be stopped via Start -> [-> Run] -> services.msc)
World Wide Web Publishing Service
IIS (if you have it installed)
TeamViewer
VMware (in VMware Workstation go to Edit>>Preferences>>Shared VMs, and Disable Sharing or change the port)
Web Deployment Agent Service and World Wide Web Publishing Service can be set to manual start to keep them from running. Stop or change these services from an account that has administrator permissions.
Skype and TeamViewer can be configured not to use port 80.
For Skype Go to Options > Advanced > Connection and un-check "Use port 80 and 443 for incoming connections"
For TeamViewer Go to Extra > Options > Advanced and un-check the similar message as above.
EDIT: I made the post a community Wiki, so if people find other programs, they can add them here.
For me, it turned out to be that "Web Deployment Agent Service" was taking port 80. As soon as it was disabled apache started right up. I've also come across quite a few saying some of the SQL Server services were blocking it.
EDIT:
Just thought I'd add that the new MSN(Skype) causes this as well, using port 80 by default. It can be changed in the settings:
Tools > Options > Advanced > Connection > Untick "Use Port 80 and 443" > Save
You can also just change the port the Apache Web Server is using in the httpd.conf file.
In a Windows OS command prompt I use;
netstat -an
to see what services are already running, and what ports they are using, then just pick a port number that's not being used. Much simpler. That's for my Dev environment. On an actual server or in the cloud, I would run the Apache Web Server without conflicts and just shutdown anything else that happens to be using port 80.
I’m currently beta testing the next version of Windows, Windows 7 and came across a strange issue while trying to get Apache to install and run using the default port, 80.
Running the command ‘netstat -ano’ from the command line revealed
that port 80 is being used by PID 4.
Looking up PID 4 using Power Shell and then Task Manager revealed
that PID 4 is the NT Kernel!
So Windows 7 by default appears to be using port 80.
After a bit of hunting around the Internet and doing some research of my own I found that the service http.sys was the culprit and all I needed to do was disable it but I could not find this service listed in the Services control panel applet.
So what’s the solution?
You have to disable the http.sys service manually via the registry:
1) Launch RegEdit:
2) Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP
3) Add a new DWORD (32-bit) value
4) Name it ‘NoRun’ not including the quotes
5) Double click the new property
6) In the Value data field type ’1′ not including quotes and click OK
7) Re-boot your computer
You should now find that Apache will start on port 80!
Oh, thank you a thousand times. I've been wrestling all day with getting port 80 free. Tried everything that I found on the chat rooms, forums, including the regex edit above, and still there was:
netstat -ano -p tcp | findstr LISTENING
TCP 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0 LISTENING 4
TCP 0.0.0.0:445 0.0.0.0 LISTENING 4 etc.
Now port 80 has disappeared from the display. What a relief!
Just thought I would put my input in:
I stopped service MsDepSvc (AKA: Web Deployment Agent Service) and this solved the issue.
I am a newbie with Apache. I am learning .. after the installation when I tried to start the service I got the following errors.
The Apache service named reported the following error:
Unable to open logs .
The Apache service named reported the following error:
no listening sockets available, shutting down .
The Apache service named reported the following error:
(OS 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted. : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 .
The Apache service named reported the following error:
httpd.exe: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 192.168.1.6 for ServerName .
The following error usually means that some other program is listening on the HTTP port (80).
(OS 10048)Only one usage of each
socket address (protocol/network
address/port) is normally permitted. :
make_sock: could not bind to address
0.0.0.0:80 .
In my experience, IM (chat) clients like to connect to port 80.
From a command prompt, (cmd.exe) run the command:
netstat -an
See if there is a listener on port 80 (Look for a line that says:
TCP 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
=== ====
the important thing being TCP and 80. If you find something, you'll need to track it down using something like TcpView
If Skype is your problem and it seems it usually is, alter Skype's port usage.
Click on Tools in Skype,
click on Options,
click Advanced,
click Connections.
In Connection is the option to use another port, I use a high numbered port such as 65432, then un-click the alternative use of port 80 and 443.
Close and restart Skype.
modifying C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\conf\httpd sloved the problem.
If you had installation problems, note that you might experience some errors such “ no services installed ”
if Apache is trying to share port 80 with another web server or application, such as a locally installed
firewall application. To fix this, you can tell Apache to use a different port. Open your httpd.conf file
in the conf subdirectory ( C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\conf by
default) and locate the following lines:
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, instead of the default. See also the < VirtualHost >
# directive.
#
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses (0.0.0.0)
#
#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
Listen 80
Change the last line of this block to read:
Listen 8080
skype uses port 80, try logout and shut down the program...
now run apache
if you are using windows os and believe that skype is not the suspect, then you might want to check the task manager and check the "Show processes from all users" and make sure that there is NO entry for httpd.exe. Otherwise, end its process. That solves my problem.
Changing in the config file every occurrence of the path to apache (eg: "C:/Users/xxxx/Desktop/Apache Software Foundation/") to the new location (in case you shifted directory of apache installation by copy paste) solved my problem. Hope it helps you too..
Please note that, not only http port 80, may your ssl port 443 is being used by any other service or software.
I have installed vmware workstation on my PC, so a process which was initiated by Vmware Workstation was using ssl port 443.
In my case, it was vmware-hostd.exe which was utilizing ssl port 443.
Try shutting down vmware-hostd.exe or simply change your ssl-httpd.conf and modify Listen from 443 to 8080 or something else.
While choosing the port number please be sure that you don't enter any port which can be used by any other software on your PC.
just provide the listen address and port in httpd.conf file. that will not show IP related error as
Listen IP_ADDRESS:PORT
If you change port ( not port 80) then port conflict will not occur and server comes up.
Below blog may help you :-

Port 80 conflict. There are a number of well-known Windows programs which use
port 80:
IIS
The most likely culprit is Microsoft Internet Information Server. Stop the
service with the command from the command line on Windows 7/Vista:
net stop was /y
If needed start the services again with the command from the command line on
windows /Vista:
net start was /y
I have noticed a new thing going on with my server that I can't quite figure out what is making it happen. I'm hoping someone out there has experience with this problem and can help me find a solution to get it to stop.
I did a reboot on my ubuntu server tonight that I have running at slicehost.com. Everything runs great until I go to start apache. I get the following error.
* Starting web server apache2 (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
...fail!
A little further research using netstat -ltnp | grep ':80' will show the following:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80
0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 3948/apache2
I can then kill 3948 and apache starts up like normal. The PID 3948 keeps changing to a different number.
This is new and the only thing I have done since I had a successful boot without this happening was uninstalling a manual install of phpmyadmin and then re-install it using the aptitude install commands. Phpmyadmin now runs fine on the server but I don't understand what this error means or how I can go about getting it resolved.
Anyone that might offer some insight would be greatly appreciated!
Check If you don't double-start your server, and if your partitions are already mounted, so it can access its log files.
I advice to restate that question on serverfault.com, your question is slightly misplaced here.
The problem is because port 80 is already in use (probably IIS7 use it). To solve problem open Apache/conf/httpd.conf file and find line Listen 80 and change it to another port (eg. Listen 5555). Than run httpd.exe and try to open localhost:5555. It works! :)
