[users@httpd] Installing Apache as a Service When port 80 is
already used.
I've downloaded the apache version 2.0. When I run,
apache_2.0.61-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.7m.msi, I get to a point where it says:
It says, "for all users, on port 80, as a service -- Recommended." This is
a checkbox and selected by default.
I want to install it on port 81 or any other port as a service, but I do not
have the option here to change the port. My port 80 is already been used by
something (it shows up in netstat -a).
I do a custom install, but only change the directory to C:/Server.
Then when the install program tries to install Apache as a service, I get
the following error message:
"An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access
permissions."
Then I get the following message when it tries to execute the newly
installed service, The system cann find the file specified. : No installed
serice named "Apache 2".
Is there any way around this problem? Do I have to manually install Apache
as a service? Is there a way to default that port 80 to port 81 or
something unused port?
I've looked online, but all the site I found just say Click on Install as
Service on Port 80 and click next.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

I install 2.2.6 as suggested. When it tried to install the service, I got
(OS 5)Access is denied : Failed to open the Apache 2.2 Service. I tracked
this error down and it seems to be a problem with MS Vista. So, I guess I
should have mentioned I was using that OS.
The problem has something with Vista not considering user with admin rights
the same as being the admin. So, the only way I could install the service
was to open a MS-DOS window as admin and then run the commands.
Everything appears to be working now.

Stop the port 80 service a moment, install and stop the apache service,
and just modify your httpd.conf file. Or install it manually, it's
not that hard to follow
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/platform/windows.html
But better yet, use httpd 2.2. It doesn't demand that the listeners
work before installing the service. Then you can tweak the Listen
and other examples of port 80 to 81 in the conf, and start it up.
