problems with apache

Postby eduardo » 04. October 2008 17:21

I've just installed correctly the Xampp. When I try to start apache at the control panel it says:

Busy...
Apache started (port 80)

but on the top is not Running in green like MySQL
Sometimes it stars but then stops and the message is the same.
what's the problem?

Windows XP

Same question applies to you - what does it say when you double click on the above file in the xampp folder - paste the error message please.

hello, thanks for the quick reply. It just says
"Sorry, but... nothing to do!"

I have tried this earlier (based from what I have read from other post) before I post my first question and it says it has refreshed. But when I try it again now, it just says "..nothing to do".

It is still not working :(. My IIS is using port 90 so there should be no port conflict. I have even checked the ports and it says that port80 is free. Can you help me how to resolve this please? Thanks :D

Can you paste the whole message from the console window when you double click on apache_start.bat file please?

You can use the Edit tools by clicking on the little icon in the console window title bar - top left of the window - select Mark then highlight the message by dragging your cursor over it, back to the Edit tools select Copy, over to your browser and the forums then paste the message here in a forum reply box.

"Sorry, but... nothing to do!" is an output from "setup_xampp.bat". But you should start:

i got it working now. port 443 wasn't free so i changed it

C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-ssl.conf

* I changed “Listen 443″ to “Listen 4499″
* “<VirtualHost _default_:443>” to “<VirtualHost _default_:4499>”
* “ServerName localhost:443″, to “ServerName localhost:4499″
