Hi All,
I'm having some trouble starting Apache on my Windows machine (Vista). Here are the steps I took:
1. Downloaded Zip file
2. Extracted to c:\ folder
3. Ran setup_xampp.bat
4. Choose the drive option, left everything else as default
5. From setup_xampp.bat, I entered the Control Panel
6. exited out of setup_xampp
7. In the Control Panel I clicked Start for Apache
8. The status says Apache Started but the Start Button Does not change to Stopped
9. I clicked Post-Check and it says:
Apache (HTTP) 80 SYSTEM
Apache (WEbDAV) 81 free
Apache (HTTPS) 443 free
10. There don't seem to be any services in the SCM
11. The Error log said:
(OS 10013)An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions. : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
I'm an administrator on my system : Windows Vista. does anyone know what else I need to do to be able to start my Apache service? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you all,
-Karin
