 |
|
i installed apache grand
im running xp2 with apache 2.4
for a while i wasnt able to get it running .. any time i hit http://localhost a page popped up saying IT WORKS!
i didnt get the other page u were supposed to get
After the installation i tryed to start the apache server via the service monitor but it only gave met the error "The Requested operation has failed!".
i googled it and i came here
but NOW for some reason any time i wanna open apache it just crashes
and im at a complete loss |

Is that a question or a fact?
The server monitor works only if you installes apache das service.
The IT WORKS! page mean apache runs well.

What do you do? Is httpd.exe running 2 times in the taskmanager? |

Seem that the file you downloaded is corruped.
Uninstall apache and download from a different mirror and try again. |
