(network.c.379) can't bind to port: 80 Address already in use

Question

I have one server running both apache and lighttpd on two separate IPs. After rebooting the server I can't access the stuff on lighttpd:

/etc/init.d/lighttpd restart (network.c.379) can't bind to port: 80 Address already in use

It seems you running apache and lighttpd both on port 80? in lighthttpd conf file change port to different from 80. Port 80 is in use by apache. — Abhishek Anand Amralkar, Apr 22 '13 at 11:09

do a netstat -pntle | grep :80 to see which process is running on this port. If it is apache, you need to configure it to listen only on one IP.

netstat -pntle | grep :80 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 0 88899 10103/lighttpd ######## Does this mean lighttpd is already running on port 80? I might be lying to you and there is no apache on this box at all (sorry my admin is away for the moment). ------------------ – chonko Apr 22 '13 at 11:10
You are right, your lighty is on this port. After if it doesn't work, check the logs to see what's append – Dom Apr 22 '13 at 11:15
