Ports are in Use , Make these ports available

[DR. ALI BAHAR]

I have been having some installation difficulty with getting my FMS 17 onto our Windows 2012 R2 box.  

When it installs, it gives me the well known dialog about ports 80 & 443 being required.  It says port 80 is in use.

When I called Filemaker Developer, my friend in Usa, they walked me through a netstat -ab | more command.  

 

Ran Windows PowerShell as an administrator

typed:

net stop http /y

hit enter

wait for all services to finish/close down

Tried installing again. and it was successful.

 

 

I suggest through this Forum to please the Installation ports be manual if possible.

because previously i have been trying for few days and fresh installations of windows server also have issued if restarted once...

Thanks.
