Apache immediately stops after start

[manicraft1001]

Hello,

last time i got an error while starting the apache server.
i reinstalled xampp and tried it again - same result: it immediately stops.
Then i started it over the apache_start.exe file, and it gave me following log (Sry, system-language is on german):

Code: Select all

Can anybody help me? i have nearly no expericence with xampp and need to get it working in a few hours.
Thanks for any help in advance.

Hi,

There is already something listening on port 443. Apache needs this port to run properly.
You can try to click the "Netstat" Button in your XAMPP control panel to find out which process is running on port 443.

best wishes,
Altrea

Thank you for your reply.

For some reason, my virtualisation application programm used the port.
I fixed it now

The post can now get closed
