I am running xampp XAMPP full Version 5.6.14 on Windows 7 x64 Ultimate.
xampp is installed in c:\xampp\
This is a new clean install. I uninstalled the previous version after I got the current problem.
I had xampp installed for a long time with it working perfectly. Today it suddenly stopped working and I got an error 500.
Looking through the error log I found this "www.example.com:443:0 server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server name"
I don't know why it should suddenly happen while I was working.
The only anomalies i can come up with are these:
I recently switched browsers from Firefox to Chrome several days previous and everything was still working fine. This morning I was checking out an xml file and instead of viewing with xmlNotepad it opened with Firefox. I closed off Firefox and went back to working on the project when I found I was getting the 500 error.
I've tried everything I can think of, changing ports etc. but nothing worked. I eventually uninstalled xampp, and cleaned the registry before installing a new version. Not sure of the previous version.
Even with a clean install the problem remains.
The control panel starts ok.
Apache and MySQL are running
clicking on Apache Admin brings up http://localhost/dashboard/
IIS is off
Skype is off
The only thing using port 80 is Apache
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks
