Help with XAMPP

[Mysterio]

Hello guys,

I opened this topic because I have problem with XAMPP and I really need to fix it.

We have been using XAMPP in my laptop as a server where all other friends was connecting there (LAN). Now, MySQL will not start, and Apache starts but can't browse http://127.0.0.1 because of timeout?

Anyone knows what do I have to deal with?

I'm a die hard wamp user. Sorry.

Your Sql is limited and try less it and see

Also Netserver is better as i can install zend,ffmpeg,ngix

in the xampp/bin folder are bat files tostart them. run and look what error it posts

-------------

sorry directly in the xampp folder

I haven't sleep yet, doing full boot-virusscans, Windows XP fixes but nothing seems to work.

@ SubZero: I will try to less the mysql data. I will also install Netserver, does this supports Filezilla?

@ DJ Matrix: Yes... And Apache starts, and shows as running service, but can't browse localhost because of timeout.

[subzero]

Yes it is preinstalled

Ok, Subzero, I am trying Netserver but still the same problem here: Apache starts but when I point to 127.0.0.1 it stays "connecting" till "timeout" error message shows.

I can't reinstall OS because it's a computer of work.

Any other idea? What may cause this?

something like this happened on my wamp. It turned out the mysql service wasnt turning on, some error showed up in the logs. I cant remember how i fixed it exactly. Just check ur apache, php and mysql logs.

[Mysterio]

In this case, Subzero, only in this case, it sucks to be me.

'Cause looks like problems doesn't have an end: now I see that I can't even run my linux server as a Virtual Machine anymore. Have lot of stuff there...

Now I have to ask whats the best Anti-Virus because looks I got some malwares...

[subzero]

i use anti malware from megabytes

saved my mates computer 129 times pmpl the idiot does not learn porn sites are virus lol

[metulj]

once(IF) you are infected...
combofix could do the job.. tho i dont like it...
else remove hard disk from laptop,
attache it to another PC(with good AV like ESET NOD32 or so)
scan and remove malware...

[Mysterio]

You may be right, Subzero, cause I am doing a porn grabber :p

Thank you guys... The weekend ended... I will tell you if I got fired or not...

Thanks to everyone but nothing worked!

I just backup-ed all my data in an external HardDrive and reinstalled XP.
