Unable to access localhost
Posted: 09. October 2009 21:29
I removed Xampp 1.6.8 and have just installed Xampp 1.7.2 on Windows Vista PC.
But, when I start Xamp and click the 'start' button for Apache, I get "busy":
XAMPP for Windows Version 1.7.2
Windows 6.0 Build 6002 Platform 2 Service Pack 2
Current Directory: D:\Development\xampp
Status Check OK
Busy...
Apache service started
On attempting to load http://localhost/ in Firefox 3.5.2 I get an error:
Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
