My problem is next: I unzipped xampp and then I wanted to start apache_start.bat like the readme says so, afterwards I get the error: Syntax error on line 172 of D:/programs/xampp/apache/conf/httpd.conf: DocumentRoot must be a directory
And the I get the error that apache could not be started, now I quote from the httpd.conf line 172:
I have looked further in the file but I cant explain what is going wrong I have installed xampp before and with succes, no problems, but my control panel was doing a bit weird so I deceided to uninstall xampp(the uninstall.exe back then) en then reinstall it, but afterwards I get this errorDocumentRoot "/xampp/htdocs/"
What did I do to fix this:
- I change the line from /xampp/htdocs/ to D:/programs/xampp/htdocs/, did not work
- I deleted xampp and reinstalled it twice now
- I looked in the FAQ, now I could not find it or I mislooked
- I searched the forum
- I deleted the service apache2 and reinstalled it (it was installed when I started apache_start.bat)
Does anyone knows the solution for me? I would be very thankfull
