Apache is unstable
Posted: 06. August 2009 07:27
Hello forum,
First I must say that I recently discovered XAMPP and I think it is simply fantastic!
I am having a problem: Apache suddenly stops working sometimes and I get an error message from windows saying that Apache HTTP server has stopped. It happens sometimes when I try to browse to localhost (on which xampp is running) and when I try to browse to localhost/phpadmin. The problem will repeat itself for a few times, then it seems to resolve itself and apache starts working again. I have not noticed a pattern that indicates what (if anything) I do that causes it to stop.
I'm running the full installable version of XAMPP for windows version 1.7.1 on Vista x64. I am not running apache as a service (as this doesn't work for me - which may be another problem).
Your suggestions will be appreciated.
Thank you.
