 = Step 1: '''Turn off Apple's "Personal Web Sharing"''' = #pws
-=== Older OSX versions ===
-If you haven’t already done so, make sure you turn off Apple’s "Personal Web Sharing" in the System Preferences so that the default Apache server is not running. While you can set things up so that both servers run on different ports (e.g., port 80 and port 8080), it’s not worth the hassle of maintaining two web server daemons. Just use the latest Apache from MacPorts and be done with it.

+=== OS X 10.8 and older ===
+Turn off Personal Web Sharing in the Sharing pane of System Preferences.
 === Mavericks ===
-On Mavericks, you'll need to do this from the command line:
+Stop the web server from the command line:
 {{{
 sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist
 }}}
 === Yosemite ===
-Yosemite (OSX 10.10) no longer has "Personal Web Sharing" as an option. Although the Apache2 web server is still supplied by Apple as part of the Yosemite distribution, there is no "easy" way to turn it on (or off). So, if you managed to turn it on, you already know how to turn it off!
-
-Apple recommends you purchase "OSX Server" to provide Web services. To turn off the Web Server with OSX Server" one simply launchers "Server manager" and turns off the Web Server from there.
