Lampp server internal installation problem

Hello,

I’ve followed several tutorials to install a Lampp server on my Manjaro KDE.

But I still have a problem configuring httpd.

I’ve tried to change the port in httpd.conf, but nothing works, I still get the same error:

httpd --status                                                                                                             ✔ 
(13)Permission denied: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(13)Permission denied: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
AH00015: Unable to open logs

Can you help me and let me know what I’ve done wrong?

I had no problem with Mariadb, I followed the tutorial for php.ini, but Apache always gives me the same error.

Port 80 is a privileged port. A normal user can’t use it. Change it to a non privileged port like 8080, or even better use the httpd.service to start the Apache Webserver and do not run the Webserver with your normal user.

Thanks for your answer.

I had already tried port 8080 and restarted httpd, but I still get the same status response.

I put 127.0.0.1:8080 in my browser and it’s still the same answer.

That can’t be. Please tell us the error message that you are seeing.

This is:


Connection failed

Firefox cannot establish a connection with the server at address 127.0.0.1:8080.

    The site may be temporarily unavailable or overloaded. Try again later;
 If you can't browse any sites, check your computer's network connection;
 If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure Firefox is authorized to access the Web.

please give us a complete output of the log or terminal output

Apache logs can be found in /var/log/httpd/
lampp logs /opt/lampp/logs

ss -lnp | grep -e :80 -e :443
httpd -k start
sudo systemctl status httpd.service

i guess the browser output wasn’t meant here

Arch - Wiki: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address

Thank you

how did you install it? tut link?
apache package (sudo pacman -S apache) or lampp/xampp package (pamac build xampp)?

i suspect a user rights issue. only root is allowed to use the low-level ports.

what happens with

sudo systemctl restart httpd.service

or

sudo httpd restart

?

I install it with the Apache packets.

For sudo systemctl restart httpd.service, it’s always the same:

And for sudo httpd restart: it’s a bad command.

ok, ty for your output.

what do your configs look like? are there any problems here? duplicate entries? check > Listen 80 < and/or > ServerName 127.0.0.1 <

check folder

ls -al /etc/httpd/

config file?! /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

If you have issues with your configuration you can have Apache check the configuration with: apachectl configtest

These options in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf might be interesting for you:

User http

    For security reasons, as soon as Apache is started by the root user (directly or via startup scripts) it switches to this UID. The default user is http, which is created automatically during installation.

restarted the system completely?

I’ve restarted the system completely, no change.

 ls -al /etc/httpd/                                                                                                                                                                                 ✔

ok keep checking

ls -al /etc/httpd/*
ls -al /var/log/httpd/

what does your .config look like?

cat /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

what do the logs say? which ones are there?
network settings changed?
hosts?

cat /etc/hosts

my guesses are slowly coming to an end. i personally use nginx on my systems.

The first command:

#
# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file.  It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/> for detailed information.
# In particular, see 
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directives.html>
# for a discussion of each configuration directive.
#
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
# what they do.  They're here only as hints or reminders.  If you are unsure
# consult the online docs. You have been warned.  
#
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path.  If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/access_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "/usr/local/apache2" will be interpreted by the
# server as "/usr/local/apache2/logs/access_log", whereas "/logs/access_log" 
# will be interpreted as '/logs/access_log'.

#
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
#
# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path.  If you point
# ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to specify a local disk on the
# Mutex directive, if file-based mutexes are used.  If you wish to share the
# same ServerRoot for multiple httpd daemons, you will need to change at
# least PidFile.
#
ServerRoot "/etc/httpd"

#
# Mutex: Allows you to set the mutex mechanism and mutex file directory
# for individual mutexes, or change the global defaults
#
# Uncomment and change the directory if mutexes are file-based and the default
# mutex file directory is not on a local disk or is not appropriate for some
# other reason.
#
# Mutex default:/run/httpd

#
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, instead of the default. See also the <VirtualHost>
# directive.
#
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to 
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.

# This host address
127.0.1.1  bruno-hppaviliongamingdesktop69000xx

did you change it like this? was it localhost before?
change to

ServerName localhost

and here you can change the port for the server:

currently on port 80, you now have the choice:
change 80 to 8080
or add a new port
Listen 8080
for both.

but I suspect the ServerName was the problem. After changing it and restart, port 80 (or/and 8080)should be available?

if nothing else helps, look in /var/log/httpd/error_log

I changed port 80 to 8080.

I restarted httpd, and put 101.0.0.1:8080 in the browser, but it runs and no result.

This site is inaccessible
101.0.0.1 took too long to respond.
Here are some tips:

Check connection
Check proxy and firewall
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

always check what your network / ports are doing.

sudo netstat -tulpen

before you ask…(sudo pacman -S net-tools)

where does this IP address come from?

it should 127.0.0.1:8080 or localhost:8080 ?!

are you checking locally with your browser or over the network? First, test locally where the Apache service is running.
did the service start without errors? the output of browser content is not useful.

Installing Apache using

pamac install apache

or using the pamac GUI will install Apache.

start the service with

systemctl start httpd.service

access the default web page in you browser with

localhost

in the address box

That’s it.

If you later drop html files into /srv/http you can access those web pages via your webbrowser by using the same address

localhost
