• If you wish to have Apache use a different port:
  • open /osgeo4w/apache/conf/httpd.conf in a text editor
  • search for "Listen 80" (around line 46)
  • change the "80" into another value (such as "8080")
  • restart the "Apache OSGeo4W web server" service

Note: if you are having problems with ports, you can use ​TCPView to get a list of active ports
