This was an error I got when i installed xampp.

Error: Status Check Error [3]

Any thoughts as to what's going on?

Sorry, the error is

Error: Status Check Failure [3]

If you used the installer, did you execute it with the 'Run as Administrator' option?

I don't think so

A. My guess is UAC was the issue - are you on Windows Home or Pro?

B. Are you able to run XAMPP?, Do you get error messages?

Try running the XAMPP Control Panel using the 'run as administrator' option - then see if XAMPP runs correctly

I adjusted the UAC before and I am running Windows 8.

Xampp runs, but i cant access the amin options either through apache or through mysql. the mysql button doesn't work, and here is the error message i get when i try to go through apache.


Warning: include(../func/cw-func-init.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\cw4\cwapp\appcfc\cw-app-onrequeststart.php on line 37

how do i access the run as administrator option?

Thanks

A - uhh - "C:\xampp\htdocs\cw4\cwapp\appcfc\cw-app-onrequeststart.php on line 37"

cw4 - has got zero to do with XAMPP, so you must have had things running at some point. and those errors are specific to that script, you should probably check and see if it works correctly with PHP 5.4.x -- They will be the only ones able to help you effectively with that,

B. CP - run as administrator - OK - When you go to start the XAMPP Control Panel - right click and use the option 'Run as Administrator'

C. You can always just type http://localhost/phpmyadmin in your browser to start phpMyAdmin

I recommend you DL and install the latest Control Panel, its found in this thread -
