I Googled it and it said something about Listen NUMBER in a file
HTTPD.CON so I searched and there are 3 files HTTPD.CONF 1 includes
Listen 8080 and 2 had Listen 127.0.0.1.8888 so I tried 8888 next and
it works.
Last question: What does a PHP programmer (not a systems
administrator) do when he gets errors like this and the documentation
is just a list of special case problems and none seem to be this
problem - where do people get help?
Thanks,
Charlie
