I am using my web server as my home automation server. To host my Web page I am using apache. When I start the services for apache, it conflicts with the PH Web Center. I cant have both running at the same time. This is completely my fault I'm sure as I am a total n00b. Can anyone help me out here and let me know either how to set up PH or Apache so that I can have both running at the same time?

Thanks,
Cruelkix

My guess is they're both fighting over the default port (80). You'll need to configure one of them to use an unused port - 8080 is often used for multiple http servers on the same machine.

You'd then access the server by specifying the port in the url. Something like http://yourserver:8080/

Good luck, Tony

Thats what I was thinking but my brain never worked it out. Thanks for the advice I'll give it a try wen I get a few minutes..... Leaving for vegas tonight so I don't think I'll have time today.

Thanks again,
Craig

Just as an Update: Onhiatus was very right. For some reason 8080 did not work but 81 did.

I can now control my lights form anywhere in the world (that has wifi.....)
