Apache unexpectedly shut down

Problems with the Windows version of XAMPP, questions, comments, and anything related.

Apache unexpectedly shut down

Postby Delphi31 » 14. June 2021 21:00

I just installed XAMPP but cannot get Apache to work. I have given new port values in both the httpd.conf (8080) and httpd-ssl.conf (4343) files but it still won't connect. It is very odd because this worked two days ago...

3:53:51 PM [Apache] Status change detected: stopped
3:53:51 PM [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
3:53:51 PM [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
3:53:51 PM [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
3:53:51 PM [Apache] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
3:53:51 PM [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
3:53:51 PM [Apache] If you need more help, copy and post this
3:53:51 PM [Apache] entire log window on the forums

This is my first post. Is there anything else that is required for someone to answer this question?

Thanks!

I can't see where there might be an error with Apache. The error logs don't show any new errors since last Friday.

Re: Apache unexpectedly shut down

I found my error. I had inserted a LoadModule for php because I had read it on stackoverflow.com (because the php wouldn't execute!). Anyway someone posted a topic similar to my issue on there and I could only find the error by following this:
Control Panel > System and Security > Administrative Tools > Event Viewer > Windows Logs > Application > Error.
My error was:
httpd.exe Syntax error on line 75 (where I inserted the LoadModule) of C:/xampp/apache/conf/httpd.confL LoadModule takes two arguments, a module name and the name of the shared object file to load them.

Hopefully this helps out someone else.

I guess I should mention that I deleted the LoadModule that I had inserted and Apache started right up!

If you register the windows service for Apache the critical errors are rerouted to the windows event log.
But you should have gotten the same error if started the process in console (like by double clicking the apache_start.bat)
