This is IIS 7 in Windows Vista Ultimate. The web site is stopped and when I try to start it the error message (in subject) appears.
In EventLog(System) I get the following following errors:
Source: HttpEvent
Msg: Unable to bind to the underlying transport for [::]:80. The IP Listen-Only list may contain a reference to an interface which may not exist on this machine. The data field contains the error number.
Msg: The World Wide Web Publishing Service (WWW Service) did not register the URL prefix http://*:80/ for site 1. The site has been disabled. The data field contains the error number.
I'm at a loss. I have no clue as to what is wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is an issue with binding conflict. There is another application that is using port 80. If you change the bindings for the default website to 8080 [for test purpose] it will work.
You can run NETSTAT -ano and find out the PID for the process that is using port 80, then you can compare that PID with the process name in task manager [may be skype.exe?]
LOL.. Thanks for the heads up.. I just loaded skype and was having problems after this... Been pulling my hair out trying to get to the root cause, I did the netstat and found a listener on 80 but the pid really didn't give a good indication...
I wanna move skype off 80... That seems to be a better method since I have control of my router... I might just delay start skype so IIS will own the port first, see if that causes "Smart Skype" to move off the port...
Anyway, Thank you! I didn't think skype was on it...
Hi, I have a similar issue and the solution on this post did not resolve my problem. Port 80 doesnt seem to be used by any program after running netstat -ano. I also changed the binding from 80 to 8080 just to try that and I still got the same error. I
really need help as I have a site that I want to put up. Can someone help me resolve this issue PLEASE. I just cant start the default IIS website.
I would turn off all related IIS services, set them to manual, reboot your machine and type netstat -an -p tcp and see if anything is listening on port 80.
I didnt know what was pid 1336 i killed it, when i tried to start the wesite same error: cant start blablabla. And when i do netstat -ano it shows again, but when i try to kill it again id says that it dont exist.Any solution?
the program id 1336 is HTTP? what is that? not inetinfo.exe ? can you get process explorer to find out what is that program binding to port 80? maybe it auto restart when u killed it.
Sorry again me, i dont want to open another topic i want to ask another thing:) Well now everything works fine exept the php i will handle with that later. When i try to open the website local it works fine. But, when i try to open the website from another
computer not connected to the server it says:
The server at ****** is taking too long to respond.
# The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
# If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
# If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
If it works locally, but not remotely. It's most likely a local firewall or router blocking port 80. On your remote box type , telnet x.x.x.x 80 (replace x.x.x.x with real ip address) and see if you have a black screen. This will tell if connectivity
is there.
I have a similar problem with a Small Business Server 2003. The IIS service cannot be started and after following KB 890015 I don't find any processes using port 80 from netstat -anop TCP. When I check the registry for the ListenOnlyList, there isn't
a value, it is not present indicating the default setting of 0.0.0.0. However, I did look at the running processes in Taskmgr and noticed that the Apache.exe is shown.
I am having the same problem. I have 3 test/development site setup on a serve. They are using ports 1028, 1029 and 1030. Recently, 2 of sites automatically stop and when trying to restart I get the same error.
I have change the ports and then after a day, the same thing happens. I have run netstat -ano and found that "cimlistener" is using those ports.
TCP 127.0.0.1:1028 127.0.0.1:1029 ESTABLISHED 1292
TCP 127.0.0.1:1029 127.0.0.1:1028 ESTABLISHED 1292
I just find it strange that even if I change the ports, they lock up. Any suggestions ?
So there you go.. that cimlistener program is conflicting with the port you using.
You can either use other port say 8080, 8081 which not so commonly used by others. or if you are using server OS, setup multiple site with single IP on the same port 80 via different host header.. google for more info.
I am having the same problem and getting the same error as most are talking about on here. Tried all suggestions and found the only thing using port 80 is 127.0.0.1 which would be my localhost I believe. Anyways, would this cause the error I am getting?
I'm trying to learn some stuff about IIS as we haven't had any coursework yet in web development for my MIS degree. I have port forwarding setup on my router for port 80, and don't think this would be causing the error. Any suggestions?
After using some of the suggestions here I have found that process 0 is the process that is tied to port 443 which i am trying to free up so that my iis part of my exchange server can run. This process is part of the system idle processes and I really don't
want to kill that process. Not sure how to move forward from here.

I apologize, usually I double and triple check the answers given by the experts but I guess this time I asked an extra question to soon. With the tools provided in the previous posts I was able to come across a PCHelpware process that was grabbing control
of port 443 before IIS. Thanks for your reply anilr. And rest of forum.
Mm.. I'm so curious about your OS and the Skype's version.
I did a test last week on a R2, and wanted to use skype on the box, so I deploy it.
out of the box everything work fine :) by now skype installer should be 'smart' enough to bind to the port 80 anymore.
if i change port to *8080 there's no problem but with 80 it just wont work .. i dont have skype installed or any other of those programs. Just got a simple sccm installation on my 2008 R2 x64 server.
you are looking in the wrong place, look at the task manager and see the apps running, if you can't see it, start killing one by one until it works... most likely is a service
Should only kill the one that is binding on port 80, hence the netstat -ano command, killing all one by one will only put the system in unstable stage.

IIS Manager Error: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process...
Mar 13, 2007 07:16 PM|kjetilso|LINK
This is IIS 7 in Windows Vista Ultimate. The web site is stopped and when I try to start it the error message (in subject) appears.
In EventLog(System) I get the following following errors:
Source: HttpEvent
Msg: Unable to bind to the underlying transport for [::]:80. The IP Listen-Only list may contain a reference to an interface which may not exist on this machine. The data field contains the error number.

I'm at a loss. I have no clue as to what is wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I have a similar issue and the solution on this post did not resolve my problem. Port 80 doesnt seem to be used by any program after running netstat -ano. I also changed the binding from 80 to 8080 just to try that and I still got the same error. I really need help as I have a site that I want to put up. Can someone help me resolve this issue PLEASE. I just cant start the default IIS website.

Thank you for the pointer.
Skype was indeed hogging port 80 and turning it off solved my problem as well.

did you reset IIS and make sure nothing was contending for port 80? Check the httperr logs to see what error you are seeing.

I have a similar problem with a Small Business Server 2003. The IIS service cannot be started and after following KB 890015 I don't find any processes using port 80 from netstat -anop TCP. When I check the registry for the ListenOnlyList, there isn't a value, it is not present indicating the default setting of 0.0.0.0. However, I did look at the running processes in Taskmgr and noticed that the Apache.exe is shown.
Any suggestions for this situation?

I am having the same problem. I have 3 test/development site setup on a serve. They are using ports 1028, 1029 and 1030. Recently, 2 of sites automatically stop and when trying to restart I get the same error.
I have change the ports and then after a day, the same thing happens. I have run netstat -ano and found that "cimlistener" is using those ports.
TCP 127.0.0.1:1028 127.0.0.1:1029 ESTABLISHED 1292
TCP 127.0.0.1:1029 127.0.0.1:1028 ESTABLISHED 1292
I just find it strange that even if I change the ports, they lock up. Any suggestions ?

So there you go.. that cimlistener program is conflicting with the port you using.
You can either use other port say 8080, 8081 which not so commonly used by others. or if you are using server OS, setup multiple site with single IP on the same port 80 via different host header.. google for more info.

I am having the same problem and getting the same error as most are talking about on here. Tried all suggestions and found the only thing using port 80 is 127.0.0.1 which would be my localhost I believe. Anyways, would this cause the error I am getting? I'm trying to learn some stuff about IIS as we haven't had any coursework yet in web development for my MIS degree. I have port forwarding setup on my router for port 80, and don't think this would be causing the error. Any suggestions?

type netstat -ano and see the PID numbers. Open task manager and see what process is using it.

After using some of the suggestions here I have found that process 0 is the process that is tied to port 443 which i am trying to free up so that my iis part of my exchange server can run. This process is part of the system idle processes and I really don't want to kill that process. Not sure how to move forward from here.

I apologize, usually I double and triple check the answers given by the experts but I guess this time I asked an extra question to soon. With the tools provided in the previous posts I was able to come across a PCHelpware process that was grabbing control of port 443 before IIS. Thanks for your reply anilr. And rest of forum.

Any error msgs during turn on/off the IIS component?
And when you fire up IIS Manager, you got nothing? no app pool, default website /etc.

You may want to uninstall iis and reinstall it, doesn't sound like its default settings are correct.

Mm.. I'm so curious about your OS and the Skype's version.
I did a test last week on a R2, and wanted to use skype on the box, so I deploy it.
out of the box everything work fine :) by now skype installer should be 'smart' enough to bind to the port 80 anymore.

HI,
i get this stupid error, but this is not a solution for me the ports im getting is following:
UDP 172.30.248.95:53 *:* 1180
UDP 172.30.248.95:67 *:* 1160
UDP 172.30.248.95:68 *:* 1160
UDP 172.30.248.95:69 *:* 3724
UDP 172.30.248.95:137 *:* 4
UDP 172.30.248.95:138 *:* 4
UDP 172.30.248.95:2535 *:* 1160
UDP 172.30.248.95:4011 *:* 3724
UDP 172.30.248.95:5041 *:* 3724
UDP [::]:123 *:* 856

UDP [::1]:69 *:* 3724
UDP [::1]:5041 *:* 3724
UDP [::1]:54851 *:* 1180
if i change port to *8080 there's no problem but with 80 it just wont work .. i dont have skype installed or any other of those programs. Just got a simple sccm installation on my 2008 R2 x64 server.

what about the TCP ports binding, you only list UDP.
HTTP is on TCP. you running 'netstat -ano' ?

Use command netstat -n to list all connections.
