Reason might be that some other app is occuppying port 80, can you post the log from starting apache daemon?

 

by: ppeirisPosted on 2009-07-04 at 13:09:57ID: 24777867

Yes you are correct, when I change to the port of the Apache server it works, but how can I know who else is using the port 80 and how can I change it.

 

by: ErburethPosted on 2009-07-04 at 13:29:44ID: 24777911

I am not sure about Mac, but on Linux, command
lsof -i
prints all open ports and applications, that owns them, so try it out i (type it in terminal as superuser)

Example (from my computer):

apache2   11511    www-data    7u  IPv6  91635      0t0  TCP *:www (LISTEN)

As you can see, last couple of lines refer to port "www" (which is equivalent to 80), and it is owned by process apache2

I had the same problem and even after fixing the ports filemaker 9 failed to load it's web services on 519 - I read up and saw FM9 needed to be patched to 9.03 but still no result. I upgraded to FM10 and everything is just fine. I am running 10.5.7. I think that during this period I upgraded from Tiger to Leopard so I was not totally surprised.

well I don't see any port 80 is occupied here ..

Please run it as superuser(administrator).
Another command would be: netstat -ltnp

fm has a feature called IWP (instant web publishing). that was probably setup "on" as default with your version 9 for some reason and thus using 80 as default also. upgrading probably chose another port or turned it off? anyway, if not needed, turn it off. if needed, set it on another port. the fm habit is to use 591 as an alternate.
also, once fm has been using it, it may still remain busy even if you stop the app, so turn it off, reboot the mac, and it should be OK.

can you tell me how to turned the IWP off

I missed something, you said it was ok when turning off fm?
what does the apache log say? normally this is quite an accurate: it's in ..../apache/logs/error.log

No it didn't .... I uninstall the file maker and MAMP... then install MAMP again. still the same issue. MAMP start on MAMP ports (Apache 8888, MySQL 8889) but when I switch to default Apache ports (80 and 3306) , MySQL start fine but Apache won't.... here is the error log for apache

what kind of mac is that? are you sure its original apache is disabled?
all macs have what they call a personal web server, but that is a real apache: is it off?
my mac is french so I am too sure about names, but check for personal web server in system prefs/sharing.
