Can I run Apache on other address other than localhost (127.0.0.1)

1

I have a proxy server on my system that current runs on 127.0.0.1 which I use to browse the internet, hence I cannot access my apache localhost for local development.

I would like to know if there is a way to access apache on another address or run my proxy server on another address.

You'll can change which port it's listening on, either the proxy server or Apache, whichever is most convenient.

Information on how to do this for apache is here - effectively, have a line stating

Listen XXX

where XXX is the port number you wish to use in your apache conf. Then, visit

http://127.0.0.1:XXX

in your web browser.
