There is not even one in Dutch. It's German, not Dutch!

And there is an english subforum as well (see at the bottom!).

What OS do you use? XP / Vista / Seven?
Where did u install xampp?

There is not even one in Dutch. It's German, not Dutch!

There's not that big a difference ...

Open C:\xampp\apache\logs\error.log file in your text editor and look for a possible reason why Apache can't start at about the date and time you tried the Start button in your XAMPP Control Panel.

They mean that you may have another server running like Skype, IIS (Windows Internet Information Server) using port 80 that XAMPP needs exclusively.

Here are some search results that may help with your error issue.

Use the Port Check button in your XCP or type netstat -a -n at the command prompt # after clicking on the Shell button in your XCP.

You can right click on xampp-portcheck.exe in the xampp folder and select to run as an administrator if the port check button won't work on Vista.
