Changing Webserver to Port 80

Help and Support Raspberry Pi
1

Trying to change to port 80 from the default (8080) and it fails to take. In the logs I just see:

ERROR: Cannot start Web Server on port 80

Running netstat doesn’t show anything running on port 80 - is there any reason why this shouldn’t work?

I have the same issue and had given up, but I’ll keep an eye out here to see if anyone has a solution.

Providing a debug log would likely give us a clue what is going on so that a fix can be implemented.

The kodi debug log doesn’t really offer much. Is there another log that might help?

Pastebin this would be great.

I just tried to change the port at around 16:20 and there’s nothing in this log either…

Probably issue with setpcap.

Will check it out
