 +====== Skype Conflicts with Zoo Service ======
 +> **Product:** //[[zoo:home|Zoo]]//
 +> **Summary:** //Discusses a port conflict with Skype and the Zoo//
  
 +===== Issue =====
 +When I restart my server, the Zoo service does not start. When I check the Windows Event Log //Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Event Log//, I can see that the Zoo 5 service logged an error:
 +
 +<code>
 +The Zoo service on the Local Computer started and then stopped.
 +Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by another
 +service or program.
 +</code>
 +
 +Examining the details of the error, again in the Windows Event Log, the following is reported:
 +
 +<code>
 +Address already in use by another process.
 +Run 'netstat -o -n -a' from a command line to find the conflicting
 +process ID, then look in Task Manager to find the name of that process.
 +</code>
 +
 +Following the directions above, I was able to determine that the conflicting process was Skype.
 +
 +===== Resolution =====
 +Launch the Skype user interface and then pick **Tools -> Options**. 
 +
 +{{:zoo:zooskype.jpg}}
 +
 +In the Skype Options dialog box, select the **Connection** page. On this page, uncheck the **Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections** option.
