WAMP Apache Open port

Question

I'm trying to open port 8080 of localhost, but it doesn't work, in my httpd-vhosts archive i have this:

<VirtualHost *:8080>
    ServerAdmin webmaster@dummy-host2.example.com
    DocumentRoot "C:/wamp/www/demostration"
    ServerName localhost
    ErrorLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-error.log"
    CustomLog "logs/dummy-host2.example.com-access.log" common
</VirtualHost>

What can I do? Thank you.

Answer 1

Make sure your apache installation is listening on port 8080.

To listen on both port 80 and 8080 , use

Listen 80
Listen 8080
