To dear fellows in this forum. I'm a newbie to Apache, MySQL, and PHP.
However, I have installed Apache and MySQL and both of these programs apparently are running.
But according XAMPP both of them were stopped.

Here's what the log look like:
10:58:34 AM [main] Initializing Control Panel
10:58:34 AM [main] Windows Version: Windows 8.1 64-bit
10:58:34 AM [main] XAMPP Version: 5.6.21

10:58:34 AM [main] You are not running with administrator rights! This will work for
10:58:34 AM [main] most application stuff but whenever you do something with services
10:58:34 AM [main] there will be a security dialogue or things will break! So think
10:58:34 AM [main] about running this application with administrator rights!

You should decide if you want Apache and MySQL individually OR XAMMP. XAMPP already comes with those and PHP. I recommend uninstalling the standalone apps (including removing them starting as services).
