I couldn\'t find a solution to this already on stackoverflow, most other related topics had to do with Apache not starting first and getting this error. My issue is that aft

Answer 1

There is a simple Work around on this.

Download CurrPorts http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/cports.html - a standalone freeware tool that lists was programs and services are using which ports. Sure, you can use netstat, the Windows Administrative Tools, and Task Manager to figure this out yourself, but CurrPorts does that all for you.

Run Currports as administrator >> Select the service/application that creating problem by running to same port >> Stop the service. To stop service -

1. Direct from Currports application.
2. Start>>Run>>service.msc>> (select from the list).
3. TaskManager.

Hope you boost me up by polling.
