[SOLVED] changed apache port, now pages won't display

Hi,

I just tried changed the port that apache runs on from 80 to 8080 (I need port 80 for a difference service so I am changing the apache port). After doing this I load 127.0.0.1:8080 in a browser and get a 404 error generated by apache, if I change it back to 80 it works fine. Is there something I am missing here?

Hi there,

It appears that you have only changed the settings in /etc/apache2/ports.conf

Make the changes in the default file located under: /etc/apache2/sites-available/ as follows:

<VirtualHost *:8080> instead of using <VirtualHost *:80>
