In the above panel, you can either start or stop the Apache, MySQL. When we run the Apache then we will get an error that port has been blocked or have some missing dependencies. In such a case, we need to provide some unique port.

Following are the steps required to provide the unique port:

• Click on the config button and then click on the Apache(httpd.config) file.

• Update the port number, i.e., 80 with some unique number. Suppose I provided 3000 port number, so replace all the appearances of 80 port number with the 3000 port number.

• Click on the Apache(httpd-ssl.config) file.

• Update the port number, i.e., 443 with some unique number. Suppose I provided 1443 port number, so replace all the appearances of 443 port number with the 1443 port number.

• Click on the config button.

• When you click on the config button, the screen appears shown below:

• Click on the Service and Port settings, the screen appears shown as below:

• Change the main port from 80 to 3000 and SSL port from 443 to 1443.

• Click on Save button.
• Now, start the Apache server.

The above screen shows that the Apache server has been started with the port (1443, 3000) where 3000 is the main port and 1443 is the SSL port.
