According to your previous posting, it looks as if MySQL is already started. Possibly Apache is also started on startup and you might try to run it twice (what does not work). Start your browser and enter http://localhost (or simply click on this link), what happens?

Did you try to change any Apache ports?

Thanks for your quick reply! I truly appreciate!

http://localhost gives me an error page (HTTP 404)

How would I change Apache ports? The ports were previously used by Skype and I solved this problem by reading the posts on this forum (thanks a lot by the way!).
I did not try to change Apache ports. When I click on the "Config" button, then click on "Service and Port Settings", they are currently 80 for the Main port and 443 for the SSL port and Service Name is Apache2.4
I don't know if that makes sense lol.

Should I change the ports? or reinstall XAMPP maybe?

Thanks!

Aha, very interesting! That actually means that there IS running any Webserver (HTTP Error is a response of a running webserver), if there were no server, you would have received a totally different error. Can you please show us the complete(!) contents of this 404 error? There *should* be some more informations on that screen than only 404.

Hi,

Here is a screenshot of the error page on Internet Explorer (background window) and Google Chrome (Foreground window). It doesn't say much, I'm afraid.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!

It looks as if Microsoft is doing their own thing, that screen is extremely weird. Can you please use a normal browser instead of that Microsoft Trash thing, any browser like Firefox, Opera, Chrome or whatever you want, please NO Microsloth Trash.

Hi,

Here is the screenshot with Firefox. It shows a blank page.

With Google Chrome (the small window on the right) , it says that "This localhost page can’t be found"

Thanks for your help!
