Installed Apache then XAMPP
Posted: 09. January 2018 23:15
Hi All,
Complete newb here so bear with me please.
I had installed Apache 2.4 followed XAMPP only to realise that XAMPP has its own Apache folder that comes as part of it.
The issue that i have is when starting apache via xampp i get no confirmation that the service has started just simply:
"Attempting to start Apache service..."
When i look at the services.msc i can see that the Apache2.4 service is running.
visiting localhost in my browser works fine, but when i attempt to goto localhost\myPhpAdmin (lower case as well) i get a URL not found error message.
When i check the logs in the C:\Apache folder i can see that the logs are being written to
In the C:\XAMPP\apache\logs directory there is nothing being written.
I assume that the issue here is that I should not have installed Apache 2.4 at all, so the question then becomes, how i can i remove the Apache2.4 instance with affecting XAMPP.
Forgive me I'm new
