Xampp Apache Install Problem

Hi,
I installed Xampp 1.6.5 win32(Basic Package) on my PC running XP.

When I try to start Apache from the Xampp control panel, it gives
this error:


"The application failed to initialize properly( 0xc0150002).Click on
OK to terminate application"

In the control panel message it says:

Apache started[Port 80].


Any ideas about how to get Apache working?

This is the first time I am trying out wamp.

Thanks in advance.
Venx

Did you execute %xampp_install_dir%\setup_xampp.bat ?

I used the installer .exe available at sourceforge.net.
( http://jaist.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/xampp/xampp-win3 2-1.6.5-installer.exe.)

I'm not sure the installer executes setup_xampp.bat
It won't hurt to execute setup_xampp.bat again.
First check all XAMPP services are stopped, then execute
setup_xampp.bat, then start the services again.

Try to access Apache with http://127.0.0.1/
If you don't get a welcome page, check
(yourxampinstallpath)\apache\logs\error.log for messages.
It should at least contain a report of the start phase.

If it doesn't start at all, and nothing shows in
error.log, you have to checke the configuration.
In a CMD window:
cd (yourxampinstallpath)\apache
bin\apache.exe -t

and watch the messages.

I tried this and nothing seems to happen; it gives a message:
"Sorry, but... nothing to do ".

No error log is generated.

When i do this, same error mentioned earlier occurs:

"The application failed to initialize properly( 0xc0150002).Click on
OK to terminate application"



thank you,

That means the installation did its work previously.
No problem there

First of all, make sure you installed all Windows XP
service packs.

Then, did you Install XAMPP in "\Program Files" ?
It is more or less protected by the operating system, and
the directory name includes a space, which can be a
problem sometimes.
If so, uninstall, and install in \xampp

Google for "0xc0150002 apache" (without the quotes),
there's a lot of information about it on the web.

You may have to install the Visual C redistributable:

Re: Xampp Apache Install Problem

hi Kees,

you were right about the VC redistributable. I downloaded and
installed it and now Apache has started running.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Congrats!
Most of the time it is not about what one knows, but how
to search.
I found the solution in 7 minutes, using
0xc0150002 Apache XAMPP
as search terms in Google.
Had to browse through 5 pages (picked from the first page
with Google hits) to find the answer. That's all.

It would be nice if one of you added this to the
apachefriends FAQ, wouldn't it?

Hi,
I got one solution in my mind is, just install Microsoft .NET
Framework and then try to install that.
You will get it done.
Cheers.
