Thank Ross for your rapid answer
Basically, I want to have in the same computer a web server (in my
example apache) and the live555 media server as RTSP server,therefore I
need apache working as an HTTP proxy for RTSP requests (?)... but in my
tests it did not work. (I don't know if I need to setup anything more in
any of the system parts)
My last statement was about if another possibility to do that exists,
that is,for example: live555 has its own HTTP server that is able to
receive HTTP requests for serving webs as well as RTSP requests and then
avoid using apache.

In general, I see no reason why RTSP-over-HTTP would not work through
a HTTP proxy.
However, I'm confused by your last statement:
Is there any other possibility in order to support RTSP over HTTP and
a web service over 80 port in the same machine?
By this, do you mean a RTSP-over-HTTP client (e.g., "openRTSP"), or a
RTSP server (such as ours) that supports RTSP-over-HTTP?
Obviously, a RTSP server cannot use port 80 for RTSP-over-HTTP if
there is already a HTTP server on the same machine that also uses port
80. No 'proxying' can make that possible.
Note, though, that our server code (as illustrated by the
"live555MediaServer" and "testOnDemandRTSPServer" applications) will
not use a port number for RTSP-over-HTTP (or for just plain RTSP) if
there is already another server on the same machine using that port.
However, there's no reason why a RTSP-over-HTTP client (such as
"openRTSP") can't access a *remote* RTSP server over port 80, even if
there is already a HTTP server running on the client's machine. (Just
as long as there isn't a HTTP server (using port 80) already running
on the *remote* machine.) You should not need a proxy to do this.
