(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80

[Shawn M]

Hi,

When I did the Plesk Upgrade one of the packages was PHP 5 Support.

I selected that option and got this error when I finished:
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80

I followed this and it didn't work:

Could you please be more specific - what exactly didn't work? Did you check Apache config files that there are no duplicated records for 80 port listening?

 

[Shawn M]

I checked. I commented out Listen: 80 in http.conf

Now I get the same problem for port 443.

What apache files should I check to see if Listen: 443 is duplicated? I don't know much about apache

Try to stop Apache with

# /etc/init.d/httpd stop

and check with

# lsof -i tcp:80

that you have any process for port 80. Kill it if exist. Then try to start Apache again.
