Can't Start Apache, Syntax Errors

[hughesj]

Hello everyone,

I'm having trouble getting apache to run. I've already tried changing the ports (80 to 8080 and 443 to 4433) and that got it to work on one of my computers, but my 2nd computer refuses to run it with the same setup, apart from the root directory (the one it's working on is C:/server/ and the 2nd one that isn't working is E:/server/). The error states that it can't find any of the modules in apache/modules/ but i checked the folder and they are all there. Any ideas?

Thanks,
James

close all XAMPP components and execute the setup_xampp.bat script.
Now try again to start the components.

If that will not help please provide us more information like the entire Apache error.log contents and the control panel log window contents.

nevermind, i was just being dumb and sloppy, apparently i changed the srvroot instead of the document root.
