Problem with XAMPP 1.54a
Posted: 17. October 2006 21:02
First, i'd like to say that i'm brand new at setting up xampp.
The website was working fine before i upgraded to winxp x64 edition from the x86 edition. What its doing is when you go to the website it loads either blank page or says the server is not responding, but if you hit the refresh button 2 or 3 times it loads the site, and it works fine for a while or until you close the browser window. Using a different browser causes the same effect. I do not have a firewall on my computer, and my router is set to forward the correct port ranges to my computer. The routers settings did not change when i reinstalled windows. I also did not change any settings after the reinstall.
I'm not sure if this could be causing the problem but to keep the files and settings from the old setup i just copied the xampp folder and pasted it over the old one. I know this is probably not a good idea but i could not find and documentation on what files need to be backed up.
Here's the website so you can see what i am talking about.

Help much appreciated.
edit: I forgot to mention that these problems happen if i use localhost:80 or just localhost to get to the site. And it also effects the configuration pages withing xampp and phpmyadmin.
