Hello,

I downloaded apache: Newest Apache

And now I wonder why everytime I try to start the apache service this message appears:

Attempting to start Apache service...

and stuck right there. I think I have tried install and reinstall my apache several from the newest and the second newest version and both of them have errors that makes me unable to run my web files.

Please help. Thanks before.

What system are you installing apache on?

Here is the log file in apache:

Hallo,

I uninstall my apache, clean the registry and reinstall apache 1.8.1 then:

I cannot run the apache (apache2.4 service error):

Windows could not start the Apache 2.4 service on Local Computer
Error 3: The system cannot find the path specified

So you running on windows? What version?

I finally figure it out. I have to clean the registry using these 3 key words: apache, xampp & mysql (deleting all the registry that consists of those words) before reinstalling the 2nd newest xampp.
