I have tried the following:
- Restart of xampp
- Reinstalling (and installing of earlier versions)
- Installing apache windows service and running it from the Services-option in the xampp-control panel.
- Checking if the ports are used (borth 80 and 443 are free, I don't have Skype or VMWare as many forums suggest as a solution)
- Changing ports
After 8 hours (!) of researching this thing i've noticed that when I change the path to include norwegian characters, such as 'å' in 'Håvard' it displays the following message inn the prompt window for xampp_start:
- Code: Select all
<Directory "C:/Users/H\xe5vard/"> path is invalid
So my quess is that this has something to do with the norwegian character in my username. I have windows 8.1 and my username gets generated from my Microsoft user and I really don't want to change that.
My question is then: How to change the
- Code: Select all
<Directory "C:/Users/H\xe5vard/">
- Code: Select all
<Directory "C:/Users/Håvard/">
Or is this impossible?
