I know how to install APACHE 100% but Localhost doesnt answer!! please help!!

[seeburii]

I want to be clear and precise, I have posted step by step what I do to install Appserver/wamp/xampp in my computer at several spanish languaje forum and nobody knows what happens. When everything is ready localhost doesnt answer. It loads forever...

I have 4 computers at home. I have tried to install xampp in one computer, wamp in another and in the other appserver, but in this one where im typing right now it doesnt work.

First of all, now im with Wamp, both services are running (wampache and wampmysql). When I go to the bin folder inside the Apache folder and try to execute "httpd.exe" I see this error:

"Solo se permite un uso de cada direccion de socket (protocolo/direccion de red/puerto): make_sock: could not bin to address 0.0.0.0:80 no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs"

First sentence is something like: It only allows one use of each socket address (protocol/network adress/port).

I have used of course several ports, with "8080" works in my other computers. In this PC I have tried with 80, 8080, and more which recommend me in forum and always the same error.

I feel like I have localhost unable or something like that, because I have never seen anything typing 127.0.0.1 in my pc explorer.

I know the error means that I have the port bussy, but in this snapshot I will show you with the help of the "netstat -ano" command that the port is used by apache:

Please, if somebody could help me... I know is hard to find the problem without being in my pc, but Im not new in this, as I told, I have installed 3 apaches yet on the other computers and this has something wrong... Maybe someone has faced a similar situation.

Thanks you everybody!

Hi

Just the regular first question : is any firewall software active on those machines ? ( Maybe not a dedicated firewall, but other kind of security software doing more than was asked to do. )

I have tried to install xampp in one computer, wamp in another and in the other appserver

Ever tried to install Apache itself ?

Hello feherke.

First I think I havent any Firewall, I unistalled COMODO Firewall before doing anything... And I dont have any antivirus. I have seen that I have some services (like 15) that in the grup column I can read: "LocalServiceNetworkRestricted" and "LocalSystemNetworkRestricted" I think is a normal thing but it caught my attention.

I havent installed only Apache because I need mysql and the other services it offers (like ftp in xampp).

The firewall is important to work in Local? Is a very easy task. Only Install it run the services at the end of the install, and write 127.0.0.1:8080 in the explorer but here is impossible... It loads till the time of the chrome finishes. As I said I tried other ports and nothing. Is like I have disabled my Localhost.

What you recommend? :S

Thanks you.

Hi

Well, that was just the regular first question people would ask you anyway at one point when debugging such things. Now that you answered no, I have no idea.

Personally I would try to run [tt]netcat -l -p 8080[/tt] and see if it gets anything when visiting [ignore]

http://localhost:8080/

[/ignore] from a browser or with [tt]netcat localhost 8080[/tt] . On Windows you can have [tt]netcat[/tt] as part of the CygWin package ( certainly present on the Windows machines I put my hands on ). If you not have it, I have no further steps idea for now.

Thanks you.

It runs with 64 bits Windows 7 professional? (I forgot to tell you)

Anyway Im sure Wamp for example runs on W7 64 bits, but im not sure if Cygwin runs on it.

 

[feherke]

Hi

Sorry, never saw a 64 bit machine. Anyway, not have CygWin already on your machine, forget it. [tt]netcat[/tt] may help in debugging, but is not part of any solution.

The default answer for this is:

Open Skype go Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Connection -> Uncheck "Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections" -> Save

Hello ChrisHirst. I used port 80, 8080, 8181, and then use like ten differents invented by me

Anyway I was so desesperate that I unistalled Skype (I have it on my Smartphone so is no problem).

Pd: Im still desesperate [flush]

Thanks you for your answer.

Ok, another thing:

Opening CMD and writing: netstat -ano

I see this:

As you can see 0.0.0.80 is listening but the conexions in 127.0.0.1:80 are or "close_wait" or Established (only one). Evidently the PID 7072 is the apache Service.

Maybe it can be helpful.

Thanks you

Apache binding to 0.0.0.0. means all assigned EXTERNAL IPs are listening on that port, so you will be able to connect to the server from the local network but NOT on the actual machine to itself.

localhost refers to the NIC loopback connection at 127.0.0.1 which is ONLY available on the machine itself.

Hi

Im spanish but I think I have understood it. 0.0.0.80 sais that people with their external ip can listen that port, but it is not related with my localhost and localip.

I think problem is here, because I am using now port 8080 which is free (like port 80 but well), and in the 127.0.0.1:80 is not listening well, thats maybe why it says close_wait. If the problem is no here I have no Idea why it waits and waits and loads and loads foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Im sure the fastest solution is format my PC. Im sure some file is bad or something and formating I would Fix it. But no, im not so coward and I want to find the true problem of the eternal load in the localhost. The ports are not the problem because they are not bussy.

I have try some old versions from Apache too, Wamp, Appserver, Xampp... Nothing Works. I call Help!

Thanks for your help Chris

A reformat is a bit drastic

What happens if you open

http://192.168.n.n

in a browser from another machine, where n.n is the last two octects of the machine running Apache?

Okay Im making progress with you Chris.

Here my Wamp is working on port: 8080. So with my laptop I tried to connect to 192.168.n.n:8080 and it loads forever like Im facing here.

But, as I told I had Xampp on my Laptop, So I have started Xampp and in My PC (the original which have the problem) I write 192.168.n.n (it is running on port 80) and I see Xampp on my PC (FOR FIRST TIME) is xampp from my laptop but I think is a good new, isnt it?

My question now is: Can I work with that Xampp and with my PC? I mean I need to work with his php etc but with my processor and with my network card, not with the laptop.

I have the laptop ON 24/7 so that is no problem.

I wait your answer and thanks you!
