[MS4W-Users] Install on new system issue

[Mark Volz]

Steve,

It is possible to bind IIS to a particular port or ip address.  We have a server that runs both IIS and Apache.  It was easy to allow both IIS and Apache to run with a couple small changes to the server settings.  

Let me know if you need any help with it

Subject: [MS4W-Users] Install on new system issue

Hi Jeff,

I just went thru a first time install on a new system and spend a lot of time debugging an simple issue that should probably be noted in the install guide.

There is a system prerequiste to have VC++ 200? redistribution libraries installed on the system. We used 2008, but I noticed that there are 2005, 2008, and 2010 redistribution libraries available. I have no idea if any or all suffice.

The installed we did was using the ms4w_3.0.4_dev.zip because we needed mapcache and these seems to be the only version that has mapcache built in it. Maybe the installer already checks for that prereq. We got a very cryptic message when we tried to install apache and it took a while and some googling to figure out it was missing the redistribution libraries.

Anyway, a note on prereqs would be very helpful in the install document.

I tried to install the same package on my Windows 7 box to see if it worked here. And while I didn't get the above issue, I did get this one:

C:\ms4w>apache-install.bat
Installing the Apache MS4W Web Server service The Apache MS4W Web Server service is successfully installed.
Testing httpd.conf....
Errors reported here must be corrected before the service can be started.
(OS 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network
address/port)
is normally permitted.  : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 no listening sockets available, shutting down Unable to open logs The Apache MS4W Web Server service is starting.
The Apache MS4W Web Server service could not be started.

A service specific error occurred: 1.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3547.

Which I assume means something like:
a) I already have service grabbing port 80, but I'm not aware of anything that should be doing that.
b. Or is is unhappy about being a DHCP host and can't figure out it hostname.

Any thoughts on this one?


I hope this helps someone else.

Thanks,
   -Steve
