 +====== Errors and Solutions ======
  
 +{{:captcha_breaker:cb_webserver_error.jpg?nolink|}}
 +
 +It can happen that you get an error like the above when you startup the program or try to enable the web server. This happens often on a [[search_engine_ranker:introduction#application_hosting|VPS]] where W3SVC is installed and enabled by default. This means that the required port 80 is already used.
 +
 +There are now two solutions to this problem.
 +
 +** You simply disable the web server option.**
 +
 +This might sound too simple but the web server is only required if you use the program with tools other than [[:search_engine_ranker|GSA Search Engine Ranker]]. If you still have problems getting it to work, try starting [[:search_engine_ranker|GSA Search Engine Ranker]] as admin (right click on icon -> Run as Admin).
 +
 +**You have to find out what program is listening on that port.**
 +
 +This can be very complicated and hard to figure out. The error message shows you some typical programs that might block the program from working as a web server. If you find them, stop or "kill" them with the task manager. You can also try to use netstat. You can do that when typing this **netstat -b** in the console (press start -> Run -> cmd [Enter]).
 +
 +You can use [[http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/cports.html|CurrPorts]], a windows program by NirSoft that will list all used ports and the program using it. It should be very easy to see what is running on the IP/Port using this tool.
 +
 +If you see that error from the screenshot but with //xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx://**81??** (port 8123 - 8131), then simply disable the simulation of DeathByCaptcha as this is the SocksAPI being simulated on a different port range.
 +====== How to disable IIS - Microsoft Web Deploy ======
 +
 +It's usually IIS (Microsoft __I__nternet __I__nformation __S__ervices) that is sitting on port 80 and avoiding a proper use of Captcha Breaker.
 +You have to disable it by clicking:
 +
 +Start Menu -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services 
 +
 +There you can disable it when changing Automatic startup to disabled.
 +search for **Microsoft Web Deploy** or **MsDepSvc.exe** or **MsDepSvc**.
 +
 +Or simply open the TaskManager and find the service as seen in the screenshot below. The right click on it and choose **Stop Service**

 +[[https://www.easytutoriel.com/port-80-http-occupe-windows.html|French customers can follow this Guide]] which should solve the problem.
 +
 +----
 +
 +Another way to stop using ISS to use port 80 is:
 +  - start RegEdit (typed regedit by using Win + R)
 +  - go to the key **HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP**
 +  - changed value of the "**start**" value from **3** to **4**
 +  - restart PC or VPS
 +
 +====== How to disable World Wide Web publishing service ======
 +
 +Another common service that uses port 80 can be disabled as follow:
 +
 +  -     Click Start button, type services in the Search box, and then click Services under Programs.
 +  -     Locate and then double-click World Wide Web Publishing Service in the list of services.
 +  -     On the General tab, click Stop under Service status.
 +  -     In the Startup type list, click Disabled, and then click OK.
