How do i get apache to install... and work on my pc. every thing goes fine
when i select port 80 in install, but i cant get it to binned to that port,
thus not letting me See it working @ localhost. The program is seams to be
running fine. how do i get it to work?
 
I might have a solution but i'm still testing it.

For installing the apache webserver on windows vista you need to shut down
windows defender and User Account Control (UAC). Then the installer will
install de "apache2 service" which is needed to run apache. After the
software is installed you can try to activate windows defender and User
Account Control (UAC).

Allthough i have a problem which i'm not able to solve yet. It seems there
is another protocol/service running on port 80. But i do not know which
protocol that might be. So i can't shut it down yet. You might also want to
disable the IIS service (located in the add/remove windows features)

Goodluck!
 
Update:
I have a update on the apache webserver issue. The apache webserver is
working properly but i still didn't figure out how to get it online. So you
are able to host/test local but not online yet.
 
I have another update to make. For testing the apache server I shut down
Windows Defender and UAC control. I also disabled the firewall. Clearly the
firewall is not responsible for this problem. I suspect the Windows Defender
to be the problem but i will send an update right here when i'm done with
testing.
