Is there a version 7 of xampp controller? I just installed the latest version of xampp from apachefriends and the control panel says version 3.2.4.
I had an older version on Windows 10 and followed instructions to delete it and install the new version (I selected 7.4.10. The first thing I noticed was red letter warning that Windows was using port 21 & I must resolve the conflict or Filezilla would not start.
Well, Filezilla started fine and I used the client to do file transfers on port 21 without a problem.
When I shut down the client and stopped what I was running on the control panel (Apache, MySQL, and Filezilla) then tried to quit, I got a bigger problem that I'm not sure was related. I got Windows access denied error and unable to create control.ini. Xampp control hung up and I had to eventurlly kill the process. The only way to stop that was to manually start xampp controller as administrator.
I don't know how to do that other than manually though. Filezilla then works fine and no errors on shutdown or control panel quit. But still that red message appears on every start before I even run Filezilla.
OK, I figured out my confusion. I wasn't using Filezilla server at all. I really don't need to. I was running Filezilla Client. Still, I never saw those messages in my prior Xampp installation, nor the access errors.
Do I just have to live with that?
