Apache and IIS

[sail3005]

I am running windows 2000 and have IIS 5.0 runnig/setup. Can i still install apache with IIS installed too?

Should be able to.
You'll just have to change the default port for Appache

On my NT4 box I've got
Personal Web Server port 80
Netscape Enterprise Server Port 81
Appache Port 82
Tomcat port 83

with no problems


you'll need to put the port in the url to mask sure you see the right one
for example,
on my pc
http://sl00257/whatever.html will point to PWS
but to load the Appache pages I have to type
http://sl00257:82/whatever.html

Thats cool, thanks for the info.

One more question, i think that IIS is on port 80 right now. When i install apache, what will happen if they are both using port 80 until i change one? Should i stop IIS before installing apache?

er..
I can't remeber what I did now!

Keep IIS running when installing Appache and it will probably detect that the port is in use.

If you stop IIS and install Appache on port 80, you'll probably have trouble restarting IIS!

I think there might be a configuration file to edit for appache but I can't remember. I'll have a look when I get to work on Monday ( I'm at home at the moment)

Thanks for the help. I am going to try and install it and see how it goes.
