It listens to port 80 for incoming call. Now, most of the time IIS starts before Skype starts. So IIS works but if you restart IIS or try to start IIS after Skype is started then you will get this error message. There are 2 possible solutions: 1. You can change your IIS settings to run in different port (say 81) For IIS 7, go to IIS Manager, select the website from the left tree view; then goto "Bindings..." from the right side "Actions" pane and edit the port number. 2. You can change your Skype settings Skype File-> Options -> Connection Uncheck Use Port 80 as an alternative for incoming connections. Restart default website.

Please help me some one.. Thanks. asp.net iis share|improve this question asked Sep 22 '12 at 15:19 user1622824 356 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote I had a similar problem and I solve it using a firewall not allowing skype to do anything else more than open the ports to talk or chat. Restart IIS after this or restart computer. Additionally you can check for other programs like teamViewer, that also try to use port 80. May be a little bit hard to check ports on windows xp, xampp has a program to check ports that is very handy for this kind of things. I hope this can be useful to your problem. share|improve this answer answered Sep 22 '12 at 15:34 Martin 887 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote accepted After restart my system, my problem was solved. share|improve this answer answered Sep 23 '12 at 3:26 user1622824 356 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded
