I just installed XAMPP and it appears that apache is not running. I have clicked on the start button but it does not say that it is "running". MySql appears to be running fine. Because apache is not running I am not able to configure MySql by going to http://localhost/phpmyadmin (I receive a "Page not found" error). thanks in advance for any help resolving this -

If there are no log files in the \xampp\apache\logs folder then you may need to download and install the VC9 runtime file from here:

If there is an error.log file in that folder then look for clues why Apache can't start.


New users can find self help by reading these first:
readme_en.txt file in the xampp folder.
