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

if for some reason you are still having problems, you can edit your httpd.conf file and look for where it says:

Listen :443

comment out this line and restart your web server and it should work. i would also try rebooting your machine if it continues. by rebooting, you will reload all your applications.

# /etc/init.d/httpd restart
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
no listening sockets available, shutting down
unable to open logs
[failed]

there could be several reasons for this to happen, however the case that happened to me was that i had setup an ip address that was provided by an isp (leased based) for apache to listen for requests and that ip was expired.

# /etc/init.d/httpd restart
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
no listening sockets available, shutting down
unable to open logs
[failed] what will i do my http server is no runnig plz send reply

i had the same problem. commneting the listen 80 line httpd.conf line and then restarting the httpd service fixed my issue.

i am using port formwarding dynamicdns

i also had the same problem. when i commented out listen 80 in my /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file on my fedora 8 box, it worked like a charm.

hello :)
in /etc/httpd/ do :
find . | xargs grep "0.0.0.0:80"

you will find some files
( for me : this command return in exemple)
./conf.d/system-config- value from 0.0.0.0:80 to *:80

in every file found

hello :)
in /etc/httpd/ do :
find . | xargs grep "0.0.0.0:80"

you will find some files
( for me : this command return in exemple)
./conf.d/system-config- value from 0.0.0.0:80 to *:80

i have made the change for two files
/etc/httpd/httpd.conf
/etc/h

i also had the same problem. when i commented out listen 80 in my /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file on my fedora 8 box, it worked like a charm.

try turn orr virtual host 0.0.0.0:80

i also get this on my windows 2003 server with microsoft sql

address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 no listening sockets available, shutting down

1)kill all nobody process. use the following script for doing that.

for i in `ps auwx | grep -i nobody | awk {'print $2'}`; do kill -9 $i; done

2) if apache is not restarting after this. remove semaphore using the following script.

for i in `ipcs -s | grep nobody | awk '{print $2}'`; do ipcrm -s $i; done

3) restart apche.

this is my error:


starting web server: apache2(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 no listening sockets available, shutting down unable to open logs

i took 3 hours to solve the issue. for reference: in conf file : servername localhost
listen 80

it is ok for me.

give the solution for this error: (os 10048) only one usage of each socket address (protoclo / network / adress /port) is normally permitted: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0.80 no listening sockets available, sutting down unable to open logs in apache 2.0

hi bose issue the following commands to sortout this issue:-
root at del [~]#for i in `ps auwx | grep -i nobody | awk {'print $2'}`; do kill -9 $i; done

root at del [~]#for i in `lsof -i :80 | grep http | awk {' print $2'}`; do kill -9 $i; done
2) if apache is not restarting after this. remove semaphore using the following script.

root at del [~]#for i in `ipcs -s | grep nobody | awk '{print $2}'`; do ipcrm -s $i; done

3) restart apche.
root at del [~]#/scripts/restartsrv_httpd

i could see the correct fix in the following url:-

ken's suggestion worked for me. i was getting (98) address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::] when ever i ran:
# apachectl start
or
# service httpd start
if i ran:
# apache status
i would get: httpd dead but subsys locked

anyhow i went into htttpd.conf and commented out "listen *:80"
this worked, but i still don't what happened and why this solution worked.

please just run the command

fuser -k -n tcp 80

please stop iis server from windows service
(administrator tool -> services - > world wide web)

and start apache

hey,guys!watch me,i also had the same issue and i just changed the port,such as 88. restart apache and it works.even i didnt know what had happened!

try this:

$ sudo fuser -k -n tcp 80
$ sudo /etc/init.d/httpd -k start

it seems like another web server daemon already running,,, if u use xampp, try to stop it first,
/opt/lampp/lampp stop,
then try to starting httpd
#service httpd start
