Change port of apache web server

Question

I'm running an apache2 server on a raspberry pi. When i get an error page (404, 500, etc.) or go to an Index Of page, at the bottom it will say: Apache server at (ip/domain) Port (some port, 80 in my case) I'd like to change the port but I don't know how to do that. Can someone help? Thanks.

change the port in your apache config file and restart apache. Your config file should be under:

/etc/apache2/apache2.conf

after you have saved the new port to the file, restart your apache with the following command:

sudo service apache2 restart
