How are you supposed to restart Apache without restarting the whole operating system? I'm using xampp on win xp running apache and mysql as services. I've tried running xampp_restart.exe, but it doesn't appear to do anything. I've tried using the control panel too. Refresh on there does nothing I can see. Clicking the stop button stops Apache sure enough, but the start button then does nothing - I have to restart the OS to get things running again.
Making changes to php.ini would be much easier if there were a way to restart apache without a reboot. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
