Mmmmmh.
Then you've got to try the way Destavator mentioned.
Therefore press the "Windowskey+R" Inside the opened field just type "cmd" (stands for commandline) and run it by pressing "enter-key".
A new window will open with black background and some white text on it. I don't know if MAC has something similar?! In this window you can see the filesystem in a MS-DOS style (it's the same like in the windowsexplorer but without graphics).
There should be written something like:
- Code: Select all
C:\Documents and Settings\Username>
Know you've go to the folder xampp was installed to. This can be done by the following commands (all commands have to be executed by pressing enter-key:
- Code: Select all
cd ..
for going one folder down
- Code: Select all
cd \
for going to the root
- Code: Select all
cd foldername
to browse into a folder
- Code: Select all
d:
to goto drive D for example
When xampp was installed to drive D just get there by
- Code: Select all
d:
- Code: Select all
cd xampp
the result should look like:
- Code: Select all
D:\xampp\>
Inside the xampp folder is the command to start it so type:
- Code: Select all
apache_start.bat
(you can leave the .bat if you want)
then post the text which will be displayed.
(I don't know how much you know the commands described above, from the MAC. So I tried to explain it best i could
)
