EDB Postgres server from local host Apache, Server is up and running The default Apache context is www in the Apache installation

Question

I have been trying to get rid of postgresEDB apache HTTP server within my localhost and I am failing to do it. I have tried various options, including:

netstat -ano|findstr :8080

and

taskkill /pid number /F

but failed, as everytime I re-start system and type localhost, this pops up.

I've uninstalled EnterpriseDB and PostgreSQL, but still no luck.

Answer 1

I have the same issue, and stopping PEM HTTPD works form me.

1. go to "run" then "services.msc"
2. find a service called "PEM HTTPD", description Apache/2.4.39 (Win32)
3. right-click and select stop or disable the service.

Note: The process that runs on port 8080 was httpd. I used resmon.exe to find out about the process.

How can you find out which process is listening on a port on Windows?

Answer 2

I know this is old, but I neeeded help with the same issue and the answer didn't work for me. What worked was:

1. go to "run" then "services.msc"
2. find a service called "pgbouncer", the description says it is a "lightweight connection pooler for postgres"
3. right-click and select stop

if you needed the localhost:8080 all the time perhaps you could change the startup type to disabled too. but for a one time use, stopping it works.

I am running windows on bootcamp on a macbook, hope this helps.
