I seem to have some problems installing mod_python with apache. 

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2
make
make install
/usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl start

On the final line, I seem to get this error. 

(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs

Actually there are two errors. I think we could get rid of make_sock by committing out the listen port is. However I do not know what the hell when it means no listening socket available means.

    You’re most likely running another server on port 80 already. Try:

    sudo lsof -i:80

    .. to find out what it is.

    Alternately, you could have overlapping Listen directives. Apache can’t quite figure out how to merge for example “Listen 80″ and Listen 192.168.1.1:80” because they’re both attempting to open overlapping sockets.
