How to fix this error when I go to wamp > apache > services > test port 80 it says

port 80 used by Apache/2.4.9 PHP/5.5.12

I tried researching on YouTube but none of them worked because most of their error is their port 80 is used by Microsoft IIS etc whereas mine is different.

I would suggest if the icon is orange but you get

port 80 used by Apache/2.4.9 PHP/5.5.12

then Apache is running, but MYSQL is not.

Read the mysql error log 

wampmanager -> MySQL -> error log

If that is empty look at the Windows Event Viewer for message from MYSQL

The most likely problems are

  • You are running another MYSQL Server
  • You have rouge my.ini file somewhere in the C:\windows folder structure
  • You have a corrupted database and MySQL cannot recover itself
