Apache Won't Run

[strangeagent]

I cannot get Apache to stay running, either from the PHP Dev studio button or directly from the XAMPP control panel. The httpd. config listen is set to both localhost and to 120.0.0.1, and I've tried port 80 and port 8080.  The MySql starts, as does Fileziila. Apache starts and then stops and says "sometimes applications stop because they have nothing to do." There is nothing on any of the ports it is trying to use. There are no other Apache installations (I removed A WAMP system that was actually working before I decided I wanted this amazing product that would give me it all in one package). I have removed IIS. I have turned off all firewalls.

I had had trouble getting XAMMP to work on Windows XP by itself before, but thought it would work with PHP Dev studio. And I've set up Apache/PHp/MySql on Windows in various ways and it's always trouble and you have to shuffle dll's around and stuff like that. I thought I'd be bypassing all that nonsense by using this product. This problem feels like it's related to that kind of thing.

This is the error log in Apache:

PHP/5.2.4 configured -- resuming normal operations
[Tue Aug 26 20:15:50 2008] [notice] Server built: Sep 21 2007 00:29:38

Does anyone know what this means, and can anyone explain what is the secret to getting this product and Apache working on Windows? And isn't there, um, like, some real documentation around here that explains some of this stuff and the use of the product a little more?

And after that, does anyone know how to get to the FTP that's supposedly installed in the Eclipse package? Another reason I bought this is because it advertised FTP access through Eclipse. I already had Eclipse installed (ur, the FREE one), which is infamous for it's seeming absolute resistance to FTP, and bought this because I thought I could use a more pumped-up version of Eclipse, with the SQ  Explorer, and with FTP access. But just like in the regular Eclipse package, they don't really tell you where and how to use it.

Looking forward to any help or pointers anyone can give....

It could be that PORT 80 is blocked.

Can you run:

start -> run -> cmd.exe
and then type: netstat -an

and see if any ports are in use? Are you using a VPN connection?

Found also this on another apache forum:
uncheck enable LMHOSTS Lookup" box in my TCP/IP protocol setup (under WINS setting).

Eric,

I'm sorry about the FTP client. It was included in 2.0, but was missed in 3.0.

I'll create a zip of the ftp-client for Eclipse so you can download the whole set at once.

Instructions on the installation and usage will be supplied as well.

For the instructions, do you prefer a separate perspective for FTP, or would you rather have the ftp-window as a view within your PHP perspective (or any other)?

Regards,
John

Thanks for the responses.

I think that the FTP should be in a view within the PHP Perspective mainly. I've looked around the Eclipse site and all I can find is reference to WEb Dav, not a regular FTP client. I'm still figuring out all about installing plugins and etctera, getting a better idea of how it all goes together and works. Honestly, it's a great system, but there's a lot more of learning curve than with lots of other Php IDE's. Eclipse is more of a real geek's product, for REAL programmers, and I'm just a wannabe in training. The Eclipse site itself could use some more up-front explanation of the system and it's modular construction and more guidance in finding the plugins you need. It's there, kind of, but it's fairly buried and you have to dig for it only to find the explanations of what the plugins do are written by programmers for programmers. I'm just somebody who worked old-school HTML/CSS/Javascript for ten years and just got into the whol PHP/My SQL world a bit over a year ago.  This is why I got this product to begin with, to avoid all of that.

In any case, It's nice to see live people here responding.

As far as the question regarding ports and whatnot, I've done the netstat and error logs and been through it all already, but did not post the info here. I've been on other sites trying to figure it out and I seem to be getting error messages same as others do. I do not have port 80 being used. Let me go through it all again and post it. This is driving me crazy.

Thanks,

Eric

OK. Here we go with a rundown of all my symptoms, as well as what I've done.

To start with, I had a version of WAMPP installed when I installed PHP DevStudio, which was obviously a mistake. So I uninstalled it and PH Dev, cleaned my registry, and started all over. Same problem.

I uninstalled PHP Dev, found another WAMp bundle called Easy PHP, installed that. Did not work. Same error message I posted here.

I believe at some point I tried a new XAMPP as well.

I uninstalled that one and got a new WAMPP, installed that, same thing, same errors. Netstat does not say I am using port 80 for anything. I went on the WAMPP forums and found people posting essentially the same error messages, but they found port 80 being used.

The reason I was doing all this installing and uninstalling is that previously I'd been through this, and XAMPP did not work, but WAMPP did simply by uninstalling XAMPP and installing WAMPP. This was nearly a year ago. Now All this installing and uninstalling has probably just made matters worse.

At this point PHP Deb Studio is not installed anymore. I'm not sure it matters since it's seems the same error no matter what I install.

NOW HERE'S the ODD thing: With everything now uninstalled, when I check my services console, it shows Apache with a path to the executable as in the folder where PHP DEV studio was, but is no longer. Also, XAMPP  is still being recognized as service (prob from the direct installation I did), but no  path to executable shows, probably because I uninstalled it.

Do this appearance of these as services mean there are registry entries to old installations that I have to get rid of? Could this be one of the problems?

I want to get PHp Dev Studio working, this is my goal> At present it's not installed. But this is what I get no matter what: (the error is the same as I already posted)

HERE'S My Netstat results:

Any help or direction extremely largely super appreciated...! What do I do now?

Eric,

In the apache directory of XAMPP, there is a batch-file called: apache_uninstallservice.bat

Try to run this (yup you need an apache installation... sorry ) to remove the installed service.

Your netstat listing does look ok, do you have a firewall running? Could your try to shut the firewall down and try again? (Maybe first unplug the internet to be sure no evil enters your system while testing)

I'll get the ftp client download available soon including a tuorial.

Regards,
John

[strangeagent]

OK, I'll try that. I had a half-formed idea in the back of my mind that maybe that's what I need to do. It's odd, of course, because I did use the uninstaller to remove it.

After taking a couple of days off from this I think I can see more clearly now what i have to do, which is basically go through everything and remove all remnants of Apache installations, and even root out if there are any .dll's left over in Windows and other settings. If you have any tips on what to look for there, that would be helpful (or if even necessary).

I've tried tunring everything off and even uninstalled the Antivirus at one point. I'm using this Iolo system that also has Kapersky anti-virus, which I think I recently spotted someone in this forum or elsewhere saying was a definite problem. I think I should just uninstall all of it,the entire Firewall/Anti-virus suite, and then install the PHP DEV Studio. As I mentioned, I did have WAMPP working with the Iolo system in which it was registered as an exception. If recall I correctly the WAMPP was installed before the IOLO, or I might have even uninstalled and then reinstalled it after installing WAMPP (this was well over a year ago). At the same time I got  WAMP working , I had tried XAMPP and could never get it to work. It would be real sweet to get the XAMMP working that comes with your package as it has a superior feature set.

At the same time, is it a problem to have other versions of Eclipse installed, and should I uninstall them? I don't think it would be (it has no Apache) but there's probably no point in keeping it going anymore.

I really appreciate the help being given here and look forward to getting this to work. In the meantime I've downloaded and tried nearly every IDE and editor out there looking for other solution or things to use in the interim. There are a couple of free editors worth keeping around (like NotePad++ and PsPad) but in the IDE realm I think there's little that compares to what you can do with Eclipse as your foundation, either paid for or Open Source (unless you get into NuSphere or Zend, which opens other sorts of doors I don't really need to go into at this point). I have Dreamweaver, but it's a beast and it doesn't support code folding and many other things vital to working with PHP, and its interface is too jammed and it bogs down a lot. Long story short, I hope we can get this working.

How will I know when you've got the FTP setup? You can email at info@hudsonvalleyrealestatenetwork.com if you'd like, or the eglavigne@yahoo.com address registered with my membership here.

Peace,

Eric LaVigne

Eric,

Having an older Eclipse version installed should not have any effect to PHP Development Studio, it's fully self-supporting JDK included.
Maybe things like skype? or other communicating software installed?

The FTP is ready for you to download and see the tutorial.
Download is here, tutorial is here.

I'll email you about this

Regards,
John

[strangeagent]

Excellent. This is really appreciated and I hope you can add it to your package and/or offer it to others anyway.

I had given up for awhile on trying to get any of this to work because I just had a big project in the works and no time to just drop everything and try this all over again. Now that I have this I will have to give it another shot. The work is getting to the point I really could use a working localhost instead of working off the server and I would love it to be Eclipse-based and start using SVN etc.. The FTP is still vital when working with hosted Joomla sites, so this will get me going.

Best Wishes,

Eric

[John]

I don't understand what is said here, suPHP is not within the installation so I'm afraid I can't help you.
