What to know

The Microsoft IIS (Internet Information Services), listen by default on port 80/TCP and on some version of Microsoft Windows like Windows Embedded Standard 7, it's installed as default.
This system service so became in conflict with the default listening service of JMobile PC Runtime.
This FAQ explains how to disable the IIS in a Windows Embedded 7 environment to allow the JMobile PC Runtime software to listening on default port 80/tcp.
Anyway, if JMobile PC Runtime found port 80/tcp already occupied, it asks to change listening port into one available.

What to do

  • Open the Windows Start menu.
  • Right click on the Computer voice.
  • Select Manage into the contextual menu.

  • Into the Computer Management dialog select Services and Application from the left column.
  • Double click on the Services voice in the center column.

  • Locate the World Wide Web Publishing Service voice into the services list.
  • Right click on the voice and select Properties from the contextual menu.

  • From the Properties dialog change the Startup type option to Disabled, then confirm with OK.

  • Restart the computer to apply the changes made.
