Hi to all,

Stopping httpd: [FAILED]
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 0.0.0.0:80

Iam facing the above error when i restart the service httpd,can any one help me on this.

Thanks in advance

it's already running, kill the existing process (or whatever else is listening on port 80). run "netstat -plnt" and see what the pid is for the relevant process.

[root@itsupport ~]# netstat -plnt

I killed the httpd process by kill -9 3505 & after tat i restarted, again iam facing the same error

Thanks in advance

well either the process still there or it's not. once you've tried to kill it, is that port now free? Can you not just reboot if you're getting confused?

Maybe this will help

I reboot the machine again iam facing the same problem

Check your httpd.conf. Check listen port. Did you run multiple web site?

Thanks problem Solved

How ?

In /etc/httpd/conf directory i had more than 3 httpd.conf file because i took back up of the httpd.conf file in the /etc/httpd/conf,tat's y it shows error after removing the backup file of httpd.conf file in /etc/httpd/conf, i restarted the httpd service it does not show any error.

Thank u
