I have Apache2 installed on my MacBook Pro. Also PHP, redis and Mysql installed as well. However, the issue i have is, when i stop apache and i run localhost from browser, am still served with the pages The same problem happens with PHP. When i stop it, the services still runs. What could be the problem?

MacOs: Bigsur

PHP Version: 8.0

apache version: Apache/2.4.48 (Unix)

OPcache v8.0.8, Copyright (c),

Here is the status. Even after them being stopped, the server still runs. I checked for Nginx and made it does not exist on the machine to serve apache webserver directory

  • Even after uninstalling httpd, the browser still runs localhost – Tumusiime Ashiraff Jul 18 '21 at 09:26
  • I can surely confirm i have no web service running on the machine but it still runs. Could it require a fresh boot? – Tumusiime Ashiraff Jul 18 '21 at 09:27

    Could a version have been installed to a different location. I remember setting up my machine (years ago lol) by manually installing apache. When I eventually discovered brew it would install apache but this would not be the version running. What happens if you try to start the brew httpd service? If something else is running on port 80 it will throw an error – mic Jul 18 '21 at 09:39
  • That can be true. Because even after uninstalling httpd,it still runs. – Tumusiime Ashiraff Jul 18 '21 at 10:57
  • Let me stop all services on port 80 – Tumusiime Ashiraff Jul 18 '21 at 10:58
