XAMPP - 1.7.3 - Various issues

[loozx]

Hi guys,

I'm currently hosting a website through Windows 2003 using XAMPP 1.7.3. I've never had to access Xampps settings until now as I'm in the process of migrating. If I go to XAMPP's control panel I get the following error:

Code: Select all

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\xampp\htdocs\xampp\index.php(1) : eval()'d code:7) in C:\xampp\htdocs\xampp\langsettings.php on line 13

Also when I go to PHPMyadmin to backup our wordpress database it gives another error, all it says is : '; var opendb_url = '

Does anyone have an idea where I'm going wrong?

Thanks

Are you trying to access the page through Internet Explorer while logged in as the administrator? If so, double check the security settings aren't set too high to allow php file access.

What language are you using? What are the contents of /htdocs/xampp/lang.tmp? Do those two match?

[loozx]

Thanks for the reply,

I'm using EN and logging in as administrator with IE 8. I've check and couldnt find a lang.tmp but i found lang.php which directs itself to a notepad file in my install folder which justs says EN.

Thanks

Not sure if Server 2k3 is the same as 2k8, but they inherently add high security to IE when logged on as the adminstrator. Most likely it is blocking php file access and javascript from running. That is probably why it never wrote a lang.tmp. Maybe log in as a user with admin rights instead of administrator - or you could drop the restrictions in IE for the adminstrator.

Hmm I've checked that & it's still not working even though I'm letting everything through. The website is still being hosted & ran OK, I've used the phpmyadmin before and apache to setup the site originally but a year on it's not working & I can't work out why :/

Did you configure that folder with write in NTFS?

[loozx]

Yep , I really can't workout where I'm going wrong - Any more suggestions would be appreciated!

[JJ_Tagy]

Maybe in IE, add localhost to the trusted sites and intranet to see if it will bypass restrictions? Then I would clear cache/cookies and try again.

[loozx]

Already done

I think you might have a problem with line endings. If the source files were edited or created on a Linux/unix station, they might EOL conversion in an editor to get them right. I just went through this with some Perl.

Just a guess.

[loozx]

No Linux or Unix station has touched the files so I can't see that being the problem :/. Out of sheer desperation I looked in the event viewer and saw this little gem!

Faulting application httpd.exe, version 2.2.1.4.0, fauling module php5ts.dll, version 5.3.1.0, fault address 0x000c08a.

I've googled the error but it's all over my head apart from the suggestions of updating php but isn't that included in xampp?

Thanks
