I have a strange problem.
When I start Apache, it crashes in several seconds! I searched for a solution with Google, but nothing I found worked for me. I tried to rearrange the port which Apache "listens" to, tried to reinstall XAMPP, and even Apache separately, but nothing proved to be succesful.
The error.log file shows this:

I'm using the newest XAMPP installation 1.7.1, under Windows XP SP3. Tried to start Apache alone, but the result was the same. Once I stoped it with "NET STOP Apache" from Windows command line, than tried to restart it with "NET START Apache", but again: nothing, it crashed.
The Windows error message is the following:
- Code: Select all
AppName: httpd.exe AppVer: 2.2.11.0 ModName: libapr-1.dll
ModVer: 1.3.3.0 Offset: 000084ad
Please, help me if you can!
Thanks in advance!
