Question

I’m using Ubuntu 12.04

I tried to change my default apache2 port from 80 to 8085
I edited /etc/apache2/ports.conf

I edited line Listen 80 to Listen 8085

then restarted my apache service
then to test this in browser I putted http://localhost:8085
The result is 404 Not Found

then I opened terminal and ran

netstat -tulpn | grep 8085 

o/p is:

tcp    0      0 0.0.0.0:8085       0.0.0.0:*     LISTEN      

Am I doing something wrong? or Am I missing something?

Thanks and regards!

I would almost have to guess, given your configuration is correct, that you needed to just to reload and restart apache:

sudo service apache2 reload

sudo service apache2 restart

If not, I believe why this has gone unanswered is there was not enough basic info posting like “/var/log/apache2/error.info” output or further explanation, along with providing us with what you had done prior as far as configuration.

Hope you got it handled and did not give up!
