I am installing XAMPP for the first time following the tutorial (http://sixrevisions.com/tutorials/web-d ... velopment/) and got to the part where you open the control panel and start Apache. After I clicked on the Start button next to Apache, the control panel dispays:
XAMPP Control Panel Version 2.5.8 (2009-07-28)
XAMPP for Windows Version 1.7.3
Windows 5.1 Build 2600 Platform 2 Service Pack 3
Current Directory: C:\xampp
Status Check OK
Busy...
Apache started
The tutorial says that 'running' would be displayed next to Apache, but this does not happen, so apparently Apache has started but is not running? The tutorial also mentioned that I might get a Windows Firewall popup, which I did not get. Any help getting to the next step would be appreciated.
