Apache HTTP Server — Common Ports
Aliases:Apache HTTP Server (SSL/TLS)
Community software entries: links are references, not individual verification.
Default Ports (2)
An HTTP URL without an explicit port normally uses 80. The actual web-server configuration determines whether and where a listener exists.
Default port for Apache HTTP server
HTTPS normally uses 443. HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 commonly use TCP/TLS; HTTP/3 uses QUIC over UDP, so TCP alone does not cover every deployment.

Frequently asked questions
What port does Apache HTTP Server use?
Apache HTTP Server commonly uses these ports: 80, 443, 8080. The default port is 80 and 443. These are community database references — actual configuration may differ.
How do I check if Apache HTTP Server is running?
Run sudo ss -tlupn 'sport = :80 or sport = :443 or sport = :443 or sport = :8080 or sport = :443 or sport = :443' on the server to check for listening processes on these ports. Also use systemctl status <service> to check the service state. Without root you may not see other users' processes. A listening port alone does not prove the software identity — verify with the config file and process name.
What category does Apache HTTP Server belong to?
Apache HTTP Server belongs to the Web & HTTP Services category. This page lists the software's port associations and their roles.
What other ports does Apache HTTP Server use besides the default?
Apache HTTP Server also uses these ports: 8080. Their purpose (admin interface, metrics, or alternative configuration) is detailed in the role-grouped list above.
