Tell me how you can solve this problem?

    1 answer 1

    This problem is related to the fact that some kind of program or service occupies the port of Apache 1. Try turning off Skype (the simplest) 2. Check the ports used 3. Change the port in Apache to a free port that is not occupied by another application or service

    • I will try to walk on p2 and p3. There is no Skype because the server is remote. - Sergey Zaigraev
