XAMPP & Visual Studio 2008 (Vista Basic)
Posted: 14. June 2008 08:54Hi all,
Briefly: Apache (XAMPP 1.6.6a) crashes because of the SQL services registered/launched by Visual Studio 2008 automatically at PC startup.
If I manually stop all the services (MS SQL Express, SQL Writer) run by Visual Studio, then XAMPP Apache works fine. But thats not too great since I do development both in Visual Studio and Eclipse.
There are no overlapping ports as far as I can see, and I don't have Apache running on default port 80.
Second but very minor issue: I've configured Apache to some other port than 80, but still when I start Apache the XAMPP control panel console says "Apache started [Port 80]" even if it's not configured to port 80 (and does not run in port 80, so localhost:80 fails...)
Anyway, otherwise thanks for the XAMPP package, nice one.
