We don't need the contents of the apache_start.bat script.
You must execute this file by double click and report back what it responses

[Way2exhale]

I double click the file and it open the command prompt with the following response:

<OS 1080>Only one usage of each socket address <protocol/network/address/port> is normally permitted. :AH00072: make_sock could not bind to address [::]:80

[Altrea]

There is already a process or service listening on port 80.
You should find out which one, like so: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1960 ... in-windows

Maybe this thread can help you too: [FGA] Apache won't start

Thanks, but I did not need to refer to your links as I just restarted my pc and all is up and running.

Thanks for your support!
