Wampserver is not accessible when other web server is up - wampserver

I have Wamp server installed and is able to access it, and everything works fine.
but I have other Apache server, when I make this Apache server up and running and I type localhost in browser, I am able to access sites on Apache server.
now when this Apache Server is up I want to access sites from Wampserver as well, so how to do this I am not sure.
Thanks in advance for your responses.

Looks like your default port is used by some other applications.

Jboss 6.4 only works on localhost and how do i specify some other name instead of localhost

I am able to access my application in jboss with https://localhost/appName
but how do i change the localhost to whatever name i wanted to have?
i would like to have it like https://nameiwanted/appName
I am using jboss 6.4 and windows 7 Professional
Thanks in advance
open jboss server at eclipse and check the check box in Server Behavior:
Listen on All interfaces to allow Remote and web applications
Start server with nameiwanted like
standalone.bat -b nameiwanted -bmanagement nameiwanted
make sure nameiwanted is bound to machine.

Configuring SSL to work with IIS and parse server

I have an ssl certificate(Geotrust) installed to IIS 8, listening on port 443 and running on windows server 2012-r2. This works when I access https://myapp.example.com and it shows me the standard IIS page. My problem is that I am trying to connect to the parse-server(nodejs, express) running on serverUrl: http://localhost:1337/parse. So when trying to connect to https://myapp.example.com:1337/parse
chrome says: "myapp.example.com finished the connection unexpectedly" and I cant reach the expected site.
ios-simulator says: kCFStreamErrorDomainSSL, -9806.
The connections to http works as expected on the urls described above.
I have tried to set the SSL port to 1337(and portforward 443->1337 on my router), but then I can not start the parse-server on the same port.
First time doing this, so really gratefull if anyone can point me in the right direction!
Solved by doing an reverse proxy in IIS 8.
I needed two applications in IIS and downloaded them like this: yourSite->right-click middle pane->"install application from gallery" and search & download these:
Download URL Rewrite (i downloaded 3.0)
Application Request Routing
This helped a lot:

What is localhost:8000 as used in Codecademy (for AngularJS and Ruby on Rails tutorials)?

I want to know what is this: localhost:8000, found in Codecademy tutorials for AngularJS and Ruby on Rails. I even installed Apache 2, but to work with it I need to dial: http://localhost/. While working on some html files, I often come across Firefox's Inspect Element where a section is to mention localhost and its number like this: localhost:8000. I want to know what's this and can I use it to access my host from my android device or some other PC as we do access Codecademy's localhost to learn AngularJS and Ruby on Rails. Pls help. Thanks in advance. :-)
Localhost is the loopback-address of your pc. The IP-address behind it is 127.0.0.1. With localhost, it is possible to simulate a web-server environment and it is mostly used to simulate running web-applications as if they are running on a webserver. :8000 stands for the port-number on which the browser connects to the server. This is because the application runs (in this case) on port 8000 of the server. So it is not enough to just install Apache 2 and surf to http://localhost/ you have to configure Apache so that it runs your web-application on the desired port. The port-number itself has no special meaning. The different ports are just a part of the url so the browser knows on which port it has to connect. Some protocols use default ports. (e.g. HTTP will always connect to port 80, unless your specify another port in your webbrowser)
I'm sure a lot of people can explain it much better, but here is a begin.

EDIT: Technically, the whole 127.0.0.0/8 address block is reserved for loopback purposes. The default one, configurged in hosts.txt is 127.0.0.1 and the most famous.

WAMPSERVER localhost leads me to IIS

I have installed wampserver and when I click on localhost it show me IIS, even I disabled IIS in Control Panel, and when I test 80 port it gives me nothing, just the Apache and PHP of wampserver, please help me what should I do ?
When IIS is installed it also normally comes with some other features that use port 80.

Apache Tomcat and Ruby

We have Ruby Rails and Apache tomcat servers running on the samw windows server. When the App on Apache Tomcat is installed alone its working fine, but when the ruby app is installed, the Apace Tomcat App stops working. We need to have both the apps running on the same server. Please help. The application running on Tomcat is displaying the login screens and allowing the users the login. And then rest of the things are failing. The application running on Ruby is just fine as expected. Also, we installed Apace Tomcat and then Ruby on to this server. so there are a lot of chances that the Ruby took Tomcat's port. But how to figure out the overlap?
You probably have both trying to bind to port 80. Whatever server you're using for rails (passenger via nginx/apache http server, nginx+thin/mongrel, etc) is bound to port 80, then tomcat tries to do the same and can't.
If you're using nginx, I would configure tomcat to run on 8080 and reverse proxy http requests to tomcat based on the hostname of part of the url.
You can do this too with apache http server with mod_proxy.
