[users@httpd] Apache/2.2.13 : Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 error

[Ravi Roy]

Hi

I installed Apache/2.2.13 (Unix) on CentOS 5.4. My prolbem is that when I
try to start and stop it using "sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start / stop /
restart"
It gives me the following, I googgled a lot but could not really find a
solution.

1.Command : $ sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start

Error Message :

Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to
address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
                                                           [FAILED]

2. Command : $ sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd stop

Error message :

Stopping httpd:                                            [FAILED]

3.Command : $sudo /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart

Error message :

                                                           [FAILED]
Can sombody help me on this please?
