Docker run -d -p 80:80 httpd doesnt work?

Docker Desktop for Windows

Hi All,

I’ve poured over documentation and the forums but can’t seem to get this working. I verified, no Skype running and I have done net stop http to see what services are on port 80 and stopped them, problem still persists.

I am on Windows 10 pro, installed Docker for Windows stable, try to run docker run -d -p 80:80 httpd and I get the following…(tried uninstall and fresh install as well).

Quick update, I reformatted my computer and re-installed docker…same problem.

Try running Powershell as an Administrator and try again. If it operates like Linux, port 80 would be a privileged port to override, thus requiring Administrator level permissions.

Most likely something else on your Windows machine is already listening on port 80 or a firewall or policy is prohibiting listening on port 80. Can you try using a different port?

Hi All - thanks for the help, I fixed the problem.

Turns out Windows 10 was using port 80 for the Print Spooler service…I guess windows does this from time to time with other services as well.

This was my solution:

Thanks!
