Yes  you can just change the port to to any number  For instance change Listen 80 to Listen 81 in the httpd conf file  Now try with http   localhost 81 and it will respond on port 81

This could also be an issue of port 80 being used by  Web Deployment Agent Service   you can stop it from administrative tools- services and free up that port  as shown here

If you re using Windows 10  as I am  and the port is occupied by Microsoft-IIS 10 0  change the lines 62 and 63  of the httpd conf  from   Listen 0 0 0 0 80 Listen    0  80   To   Listen 0 0 0 0 8080 Listen    0  8080   As the people here suggested   And also  change the line 221  from   ServerName localhost 80   To   ServerName localhost 8080   Now  your host will be available at http   localhost 8080

I don t recommend changing apaches port itself  because it will need you remember changed port  Its also headache to tell your co-developers about port change   Go to windows features By searching turn on or off windows features  -  Find Internet information services IIS  and uncheck if it checked     Please make a note when you disable it FTP server  client will not work  incase you are     using it  change httpd conf as giovannipds  s answer  -  If still port is not free  then change skype port through skype settings   thanks

I had the same problem a month ago on Windows 10  Whenever I tried to access http   localhost  it led me to the IIS page  I tried removing the IIS feature from windows features  Once I was sure it was gone  I tried running XAMPP  but it still did not work  I did not want to mess with the configuration files  But from this  I was quite sure it had something to do with my web browser  So  deleted the cache from the web browser I was using  Google Chrome    To do so  I went to    Chrome   Settings   Show Advanced Settings   Privacy   Clear browsing data   Clear Cached images and files   Its almost the same process for any web browsers  Right after that  I was able to run XAMPP without any problem   Hope it helps

By default WampServer is installed to  port 80 which is already used by IIS  To set WampServer to use an open port  left click on the WampServer icon in the system tray and go to Apache   httpd conf   Open the httpd conf in Notepad  press ctrl f and search for  Listen 80   change this line to  Listen 8080   u can change this port as what you want   and then close and save the httpd conf file    Open a web browser and enter       this will open the WampServer configuration page where you can configure Apache  MySQL  and PHP    and some times this problem may occur because of skype also use 80 as default port  hope this will help
