XAMPP on windows. Apache Shutdown Unexpectedly. Apache not starting - php

This is a common issue where the port is already in use by other applications. But I have corrected the issue from skype where it was using port 80 and 443. But I am not sure what else application might be preventing apache from running.
Here is the error log
Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
improper privileges, a crash or a shutdown by another method.
Press the Logs button to view error logs and check.
the Windows Event Viewer for more clues.
IF you need more help,
copy and post this entire log window in the forum
I have checked the error log file. It would be nice if anyone would kindly explain me the issue. I am new in using xampp

Well if you read the messages from Apache it is quite obvious you have tried to activate SSL and there is a problem with what you have done.
I think this part of the error message from XAMPP is most relevant a crash or a shutdown by another method.
Assuming you did this by uncommenting the Include conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf line in httpd.conf then just comment that line out again and then try and fix your SSL config.
As suggested by the error message, look at the Windows Event Viewer. Apache writes there as well as its log file. SOmetimes the errors shown in Event Viewer are very descriptive and will identify a line number in a config file where the error exists
RE Your comment :
I had previous installation of xamp on my system. I had deleted the source folder of xampp and reinstalled xampp
Its possible that as you did not uninstall the old version of XAMPP something from the old version is still registered with your system and that is what is causing this odd situation.
I would uninstall this XAMPP (properly) and then check if you still have an Apache and/or MYSQL service registered, look using the services snapin.
If they are still there you can remove them like this (sc delete ) :-
Start command window using "Run as Administrator"
sc delete MYSQL
sc delete Apache
Make sure you have backed up any databases, although it may already be to late for this.
Then you can re-install the version of XAMPP you want to use.

XAMPP Apache won't open

I have been pulling my hair out for the last hour or so trying to get the Apache service to work for class. I have been running apache-control.exe as an admin and I tried it as both an installed and uninstalled service. I have changed the ports it runs on, I have reinstalled XAMPP many times, and I have reinstalled the Microsoft VCRuntime.
Here is what my error log looks like:

Laravel connection reset after any file changes

I have laravel 4.2 installed in a local environment (windows 10) for testing, but keep getting a connection reset error after updating any files.
My project will load and the server properly displays my pages. However if I update a file (index for example) and then try access a page that renders the newly updated file, I always get a connection reset error. Even a change as simple as a period.
Even more interesting is when I use php artisan to serve my files, I never get the connection reset problem. If I visit the page through artisan serve it works, and then all the sudden xampp wants to work, but only after I have loaded the page from artisan once before.
If I make changes to the file again I have to repeat this process.
Local Setup
My project is being hosted locally from xampp (v 3.2.2) with the following v-hosts config. The hosts files have also been properly configured.
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/myproject/public"
ServerName myproject.local
ServerAlias myproject.local
ErrorLog "logs/myproject.log"
CustomLog "logs/custom.myproject.log" combined
<Directory "C:/xampp/htdocs/myproject/public">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
In short: I change a file, I get connection reset on xampp when trying to access that page. I view the page from artisan and then refresh the page on xampp, all the sudden it works.
Update
I have tried alternates such as laragon suggested by Lucas, however the same error persists. After updating any file when trying to access that page I get a connection reset error.
I have found more information looking at the apache log in laragon.

This issue was finally resolved with a configuration change with Apache.
Add the following to the httpd.conf file:
<IfModule mpm_winnt_module>
ThreadStackSize 8888888
</IfModule>
Then Restart.
The problem is that windows has a smaller stack size by default than on the Linux/Unix systems. It took me a while to figure this out. Apache was silently crashing and I was getting no errors in my logs making it hard to trace.
The project I am working on has large regular expression calls and apparently this was a known trigger to cause this issue with apache on windows. If you look at apache documentation we can update the ThreadStackSize to a value closer to Unix/Linux systems of 8MB.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mpm_common.html#ThreadStackSize
I hope this helps anyone else developing on a windows system running apache as a local server. This was a major headache for some time.
php artisan serve use the PHP built on server (php -S localhost:80 -t public) to host the application.
Maybe the problem can be your apache configuration, so try this:
# define DOCROOT variable
define DOCROOT "C:/xampp/htdocs"
<Directory "${DOCROOT}">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "C:/xampp/htdocs/myproject/public/"
ServerName myproject.dev
</VirtualHost>
if the problem persists, try use Laragon and open it always as administrator.
Opening php error log may help you find the real problem. there was an error in my codes( using isset() directly on a function )

Apache Not working in xampp version 3.2.2

When I start the apache server using XAMPP v3.2.2, it comes with an error saying:
18:30:18 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
18:30:18 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,

I am confused and not sure how to fix it.
If your skype is turned on - you might exit the program because skype is using port 80
After a little research I've found that Win 10 might have a service running at port 80, something named "World Wide Web Publishing Service". What you need to do is stop this service or change the Apache port, like below:
Try this:
Method 1. Changing Apache default port:
On a text or a code editor open the file httpd.config - it should be located at C:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf
Search for "Listen 80".
Change 80 to any other port number e.g. – 9080
Start XAMPP.
To access your localhost, open your browser and type: localhost:9080/sitefolder/ instead of just localhost/sitefolder/
You should be ok then.
If it doesn't work, go over the same process to change the port to 80 again and proceed to Method 2.
Method 2: Stop World Wide Web Publishing Service.
Note: Unless you’re running some software that depends on the Microsoft IIS Web Server, you should be fine when stopping it.
To stop this service, you can follow this video tutorial.

Setting up PHP for Apache on Windows

I have been trying to set up PHP from php.net in my Apache web server (localhost).
Over the last day and a half I've been chasing through documentation at the Apache site, the php.net site, SO, and anywhere else shows a hit for the current error, to try and solve the problems. Here are some details of my current set-up and (possible mis)understanding.
Define SRVROOT "/Apache/00"
ServerRoot "${SRVROOT}"
The public directory of Apache is set to htdocs. Apache is producing listings of the directories under it without any problems through localhost. Just to make bleeding sure that I have the right address and it it is Apache, I do an on/off test as described below.
I ran the Windows MSI supplied for PHP. Then I adjusted the /conf/httpd.conf file to add:
ScriptAlias /php/ "${SRVROOT}/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
Note: php, htdocs (public files) & conf directories are all in the root of the same directory, SRVROOT.
Test Apache
http://localhost/lib/
might produce:
Index of /lib
Parent Directory
amd64/
web.jar
x86/
While shutting down Apache and refreshing the listing I see a FF error.
Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.
So Apache itself seems to be working fine, when it is running I can do directory listings.
Test PHP
http://localhost/php/
Shows:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /php/ on this server.
OK that seems logical, Apache now acknowledges the existence of the directory but says it is not intended to by publicly browsed.
I have an phpinfo.php in the root of the php directory containing.
<?phpinfo();?>
I expect that if I browse to http://localhost/phpinfo.php is should give me information, but instead I get 404 message:
Not Found
The requested URL /phpinfo.php was not found on this server.
For http://localhost/php/phpinfo.php I get forbidden message:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /php/phpinfo.php on this server.

Question
I want to show the phpinfo.php document. Can anyone see the dumb mistake I am making (I am a newbie at this)?
See also:
These are the primary docs I've been looking at:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/
http://www.php.net/docs.php
You're probably getting the permission error because the phpinfo.php file does not have permissions set such that the Apache server you're running can read it. Apache can be configured to drop privileges to a limited user account when it runs, and if your file security permissions for a file don't allow that user account to read the file, you will get permission errors. Remember that this applies to every directory in the final path name, i.e. /Apache and /Apache/00 and /Apache/00/php and /Apache/00/php/phpinfo.php must ALL be readable by the user account that Apache runs under.
Another possibility is that you may need to add a Directory directive in httpd.conf to allow access to /php/ if your httpd.conf has a Directory directive for a default access policy of deny-first.
I also don't see any mention of where you've installed the PHP Apache module DLL into the Apache modules folder, nor where you've added the module in your httpd.conf file. If you don't load the PHP module, PHP files will not pass through PHP.
