MySQL and Apache Can't Start

Postby reaply » 13. December 2011 04:50

Thanks a mod made a new thread, sorry if it couldn't be in the same thread!

Also I still am having a mysql giving me a problem. I will click start and it will not do anything. It used to run with no problem. It will say "8:01:58 PM [mysql] Starting mysql service..." And not end.

Now apache won't start too, it will say "8:00:02 PM [apache] Starting apache service..." and never finish. I am really confused.

Use the new xampp-control.3.beta.exe file found in the xampp folder as it has a better log window and more features.

The latest version is linked in my signature and after downloading extract and overwrite the file to the xampp folder only.

First exit the older 2.5 panel.

OK, it looks like you have put your web site files in the C:\xampp\htdocs\xampp folder which is incorrect as all those readme files and faq links I posted in your other topic will attest.

Move them into the htdocs folder and Apache may start.

Is there a Green tick in the MySQL service module column?

Have you installed/uninstalled/installed a few times before?

I put the files in htdocs.

Yes, there is a green tick. (Should I put it on apache?)

And I did reinstall it but that was before we fixed the previous problem and it worked then.

Click on both ticks in Apache and MySQL columns and answer yes to the question to uninstall the service.

Then try and start them again.

If they won't be removed then click on the Win-Services button and find Apache2.2 and mysql then select Start.

Then go back to the panel and they should have both started and showing in green.

Code: Select all
8:31:34 PM  [mysql]    Service was NOT (un)installed!

So, the mysql won't even uninstall but apache did.

Then follow the instruction by using the button I mentioned but find only mysql.

Can you start Apache now and if not read the log file at the time you last tried to start Apache.

Sorry about the image size.

Click on the XAMPP-Shell button and type at the prompt:
sc delete mysql
hit return

If that fails to work in the shell then open a command console by typing cmd.exe and then type the above command again.

Not sure how you get a command console in Win7 but in XP we go to Start then Run.. then we have a box to type the cmd.exe - you may know how to do this in 7.

You may also try a reboot as there is a sticking Windows Service somewhere.

Your last 2 images are larger than recommended in the how to post announcement item lucky 7 ;)
viewtopic.php?f=16&t=48331

Please resize them as it is important for those readers who do not have wide screens or large screens and who are still on low bandwidth dial-up services (there are still millions world wide who have no broadband available).
Thanks. :)



Well that is strange that you can't remove the tick and you don't have a MySQL service

Being as you are just starting out may I suggest you uninstall and then reinstall using an alternate method as outlined in this post, and if you follow it then you should be able to move forward:
viewtopic.php?p=179699#p179699

If you choose the 7zip archive then do not use the freeware IZArc utility as it has known issue with XAMPP not extracting zero length files that are needed.

It has been known that the installer version has some bugs for some Windows versions and will be replaced in the next release.

Don't forget to use the latest Version 3 Control Panel linked in my signature, it has been refined greatly from the version included in the 1.7.7 release.
