and when i try to start MySQL Database or Apache Web Server it says Starting... and then it is stopped. the only one running is ProFTPD.


I might have downloaded php, apache etc.. previous times so may this be the problem? or what else??

thenk you i hope this problem wont take long to be solved :roll:

I have exactly the same issue. Can you tell me exactly what steps you took to resolve this? How do I stop programs from running in /etc?
