Conflict Skype & Apache: Apache won’t start in Xampp Control Panel
August 12, 2008 | Leave a Comment
I’ve been struggling for days, trying to start Apache in the Xampp Control Panel on my laptop. I was always getting a message:
Busy…
Apache started [port 80]
At the end, I discovered that my Skype program was configured to use port 80 as an alternative for incoming calls. When I unchecked that option, everything was fine. I am now able to start Apache, without problem.
I felt it necessary to share this, in case somebody comes across the same problem.
