httpd will not start

[gotminein89]

When I try to start httpd it fails everytime. I have DNS running with a "fake" site of www.apachelab417.com. It resolves with nslookup fine. I have not changed anything in httpd.conf either. Here's the error.
========================================================================
Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 127.0.0.1:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs

Log into your box with ssh and find out which process is using port 80

netstat -lntp|grep :80

kill the process and restart apache

 

[daveyw]

lsof -ni tcp:80

kill the PID numbers and restart HTTPd

Once you found the PID, just type:

kill -9 PID
