Port 80 Problem

How do I check if Port 80 on my server is working? If it is not working how do I fix it? I was working fine previously.

Port 80 is usually used for Internet. You can check with what service is assign to it in /etc/services file.

Hi,

To check whether port 80 is open .

#netstat -an | grep -i listen | grep 80

It the output is somewhat like this then the web server is running in port 80

0.0.0.0:80 LISTEN

You can also use 'lsof' to investigate port 80.

lsof -i tcp:80
lsof -i udp:80

This will give you an idea of what application processes are bound to port 80.

Please note that if you have port 80 assigned to http in /etc/services then you will need to grep for http and not 80.

netstat -a | grep http

Yes, the
netstat -a | grep http
will do it for you - also, a simple way to check a server remotely - is telnet to port 80:

telnet yourserver 80

Connected to yourserver.
Escape character is '^]'.

That means there is there is a webserver running on port 80 (ok - maybe not - as someone could use port 80 for something else - but that would be rare).
