XAMPP fails, Invalid argument: unable to replace stderr...
Posted: 22. October 2007 06:47
I went from a fully functional installation of XAMPP v1.6.1 just 3 weeks ago to a non-working system now. Use WinXP Home Edition SP2.
The error logs at "c:\Program Files\xampp\apache\logs\error.log" say:
I have tried starting XAMPP just as I always did, via the xampp_start.bat batch file in the "\Program Files\xampp" folder. I cannot even get my browser to recognize http://localhost/ anymore. My "hosts" file at c:\Windows\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\HOST is unchanged from last month.
Within the XAMPP Control Panel, when I click on the Start button to begin Apache, it runs for a second and then shuts down, issuing another error message like the one posted above. What do you suggest?
