Am installing OS ticket on my server but because i use port 80 for a whole load of stuff, i would like to know if its possible setup osticket to use a different port number???? thanks
If you are using Apache you could do something like the following. Add this to your ports.conf in your apache settings:
ports.conf
Listen 80
Listen 90
NameVirtualHost ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4
<VirtualHost ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4>
ServerName tickets.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/ostickets
</VirtualHost>
NameVirtualHost ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4
<VirtualHost ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4>
ServerName othersite.example.net
DocumentRoot /var/www/othersite/
</VirtualHost>
Here you are declaring that port 80 should listen for othersite.example.net and port 90 should be listening for tickets.example.net
Then all you would need to do to browse to tickets.example.net is type "tickets.example.net" into the browser and it'll pop up. (whereas tickets.example.net alone will not as the default is to listen to port 80).

Btw, if you don't have any other sites and you just want this site alone to run port 90 you could just change the Listen 80 that is already present to Listen 90. Or for setting up for the future you could at least just use the simple following:
Listen 90
NameVirtualHost ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4
<VirtualHost ip1.ip2.ip3.ip4>
ServerName tickets.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/ostickets
</VirtualHost>
