so find out what server is using that socket. maybe your web server is
configured to use both ip addresses.

well, that address doesn't exist so that error is expected.

you can't run two servers on the same address as you know. so you must
delve into your box and see who is listening on that ip/port. or choose
another port which is usually easy. there is no reason to require port
80 for a server. it is just the default one for http but you can use any
free port you can find.
