Skype is borking Foswiki on a stick
Lately my foswiki on the stick has been throwing this error whenever I try launch it, looking into C:\xampp\apache\logs\error.log, this comes up:
(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
Skipping the long winded troubleshooting narrative, I remember that I just upgraded Skype to 5.10.0.116. After shutting down Skype, I am able to bring Foswiki up again.
It's interesting that Skype uses port 80 to do it's business.
I blog about Perl.
Skype uses whatever it can get its hands on to do its dirty work.
Heya :)
I keep thinking about changing the Foswiki on a USB stick to use Plack, and to auto pick a port, but i only rarely find out that anyone's using it :)
Cheers for the ack
