Hi there,
Today one of my CWP-server's apache stopped working totally (no response on port 80 or 443) and when I tried to restart it, it just gives:
"(98)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:443" -error.
I have tried to rebuild virtual hosts several times with no help on this issue.
On select web servers page I have "Apache only" selected.
"netstat -tpan|grep 443" gives no results so according to it, nothing is listening at port 443
On /usr/local/apache/conf.d/ grep 443 gives following results:
[root@s1 conf.d]# grep 443 * -R
ssl.conf:Listen 443
ssl.conf:NameVirtualHost 62.106.45.79:443
on /usr/local/apache/conf/ it gives following:
extra/httpd-ssl.conf:Listen 443
extra/httpd-ssl.conf:<VirtualHost _default_:443>
extra/httpd-ssl.conf:ServerName www.example.com:443
original/extra/httpd-ssl.conf:Listen 443
original/extra/httpd-ssl.conf:<VirtualHost _default_:443>
original/extra/httpd-ssl.conf:ServerName www.example.com:443
Should I remove those additional Listen 443 directives from some of the files?
Or any other ideas how I could get apache back working?

Comment or remove the line in your /usr/local/apache/conf.d/ssl.conf :
Listen 443
Then add it below the line "Listen 80" in your /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf.
Banged my head against the wall for hours and tried everything and that's the only thing that worked for me
Hope this helps.
if you don't use ssl (you have no vhosts in your /usr/local/apache/conf.d/vhosts-ssl.conf file then you can simply remove/delete ssl.conf file and restart apache.
don't worry about this file, when you install ssl for any domain it will be created automatically.
