Apache start up error

Hi All,
I recently purchased a new dedicated server with CentOS 6 installed.
I've installed Webmin/VirtualMin on it as my control panel.
When I try to start apache from a virtual server ive created, i get the following:
Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:88
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
[FAILED]
I'm really struggling and would appreciate help.
Many thanks,
Craig

Sounds like you have duplicate IP addresses.

Looks like something is already listening on port 88.
Code: Select all
netstat -avpn | grep ":88 .*LISTEN"
should reveal it.

netstat: no support for `AF INET (sctp)' on this system.

Hi Trevor,
The output is:
Linux green6119.server-cp.com 2.6.32-573.22.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 23 03:35:39 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux.
I'm almost convinced that the server needs rebuilding to be honest...

How are you starting Apache? It needs to be started by root in order to bind to port 88.

Why are you listening on port 88 instead of port 80?
Selinux is not going to allow that without adding custom rules.

Do rebuilding Apache wipe out www content and websites ?

You may get better results by starting your own post rather than trying to 'redirect' one that is unrelated and 2 1/2 years old.
More to your question: You'll need to tell us what you call "rebuilding". If you refer to merely a 'yum reinstall' of http then your 'pages' should survive. For any other method, you'll need to be very much more descriptive of your plans before your question can be answered.
