    You have something running on the pot 443 - to see what issue the command netstat -lanp and look for what local address '0.0.0.0:443'. The last field tells what program is bound to the port.

It appears another process is bound to tcp port 443. You can either change the configuration for that process to use a different port or change your Apache config to use something other than 443.

To find which process is using port 443, you can use lsof -i :443

To change the port that Apache uses, edit your conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf file. Change any instances of "443" to "8443" (or whichever available port you prefer)

Did you start your service as root ? 443 port is before 1024, so it is reserved to root user. Check if something run on 443 port, with netstat -pntl | grep 443 (with root user)

Try changing your address from 0.0.0.0 to 127.0.0.1
