I am a novice I do not know anything about port numbers and how to change them. While installing Xampp on my windows 8.1 it is showing Error in port that apache has to use. How can I resolve this port issue and which port number I should change it to Please help me out This is the error coming while running xampp
回答1:
Open xamp, click on http.conf and search ServerName localhost
ServerName localhost:8181
I have set 8181 as my port, it will be 80 change it to 81 (since 80 is being used VMware in your case and it is used by skype too).
Reset the server after saving it..

This is a common issue. For an example Developers can run Java web applications on JBoss server and at the same time test PHP project on XAMMP server. To make both servers up and carry out developments, port numbers need to be changed. Following is the way for changing port number in XAMMP Server.
If the XAMPP server is running for the moment, stop XAMPP server.
Follow these steps to change the port number.
Open the file in following location.
[XAMPP Installation Folder]/apache/conf/httpd.conf
Open the httpd.conf file and search for the String:
Listen 80
This is the port number used by XAMMP.
Then search for the string ServerName and update the Port Number which you entered earlier for Listen
Now save and re-start XAMPP server.
