Hi,

You have not even noticed that you wrote your message in a discussion that dates from eight years!

First of all, please answer READ (and answer) BEFORE YOU ASK A QUESTION

Second, why have you changed port 80 to 8080? And how did you change the port number?

Sorry, I was distracted solving this and I didnt notice it was from 8 years ago ,I cannot use the port 80 because other process is using it, I cannot kill it because the network policy here, finally I had to use the port 8080 to run wamp, I dont know what else can I do?

Any idea about it

Thanks!!!

Hi,

See TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS all points, but points 03 and 08 for port 80.

Twwo things without answer :

- 1 - how did you change the port number?

-2 - READ (and answer) BEFORE YOU ASK A QUESTION

Note 1 : alias are in wamp\alias\ folder.

Note 2 : Left-click Wampmanager tray icon -> Apache -> Alias directories -> your alias -> Edit alias

Hi

Sorry, about the things without answer:


1.- I changed port 80 to port 8080, into httpd.config on Apache


2.- I read the point03, and Im not using Skype, (but Port 80 is used by Other process wich I cannot stop)
then I have to use onother port in order to create my project.

in point 08, I have no IIS installed, then this is not a problem.

Thanks in advance!!!

This is not the GOOD method.

> 2.- I read the point03, and Im not using Skype, (but Port 80 is used by Other process wich I cannot stop)

What is the result of:
- Right-click Wampmanager tray icon -> Tools -> Test port 80

Hi,


Result is:

Your port 80 is used by a processu with PID 04

Your port 80 is actually used by:

Server: Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0


Thanks!!!

Hi,

Apply point 08. IIS is running.
It is installed by the System, not by you.

Hi,

I have no IIS "check" in my "Windows features" , I researched about it, and I discovered the process which is using port 80, this proccess I can not stop it because I dont have permissions to do it due to the network policy, then I have to use another port, and this is my problem, I need to create an Alias with Localhost:8080(or other port)

but I dont know if it is possible

Hi,

From the moment you change the default port of the http protocol, you should always specify this port number in the url, for example:
'http://localhost:8080/'
'http://localhost:8080/phpmyadmin'
There is no way to free yourself from the addition of port 8080 in the url.
Nevertheless, if you want to edit aliases, I have already answered how this can be done.

To change the default http port, and to do it wherever needed, use the built-in Wampmanager tool.

Right-click Wampmanager tray icon -> Tools -> Use a port other than 80

Ok, Alias are created, but my point is what can I do other in order users on my network can see my project?, when I was using port 80 I didn't have problem to create an alias and share the "IP/project", everybody could access via web.

Thanks
