Topic: problems with Apache service

[direktor]

Windows could not start Apache 2.2 on local computer. For more information view the Event Log. If this is non.Windows service contact the service vendor, and refer to service specific error code 1.

I have installed XAMPP 1.7.1. When installing it it says "Ports 80 and 443 (SSL) are not available. Can't install Apache service." or something like that.

What should I do?

I read that when Apache process on windows end with "service-specific error 1", that generally just meant that the process exited with an error but the Service Control Manager does not know anything about the error.

This is error.log:

In the xampp package is xampp-portcheck.exe if you run it can you see any program listen on the port 80 and or 443 ?
