HTMLHelp Forums _ Off Topic _ Apache V2.2 under Windows

Posted by: Dr Z Mar 19 2017, 03:16 AM

I have not used Apache for some time now. When I went to use it today I found that it has "stopped.

When I go to Monitor.exe, it opens a pop-up window with black background with nothing on it (i.e. blank).

Apache Monitor gives the following message in a pop-up window:
"Apache Monitor is already started."

Is there a way to re-start it? Any help or comments will be greatly appreciated.

I don't understand, how can it both be blank and contain a message?

Normally I think Apache Monitor is started with Windows, as background process. At least in my Windows version there's an Apache icon in Windows Notification Area (next to the clock) that you can use to start the Apache server.

Sorry for the stupid mistake! It is the Apache.exe that gives me a blank window.
I tried the Apache icon method, I got the following message:
"The requested operation has failed."

I don't know what else I can do.

You mean you can open the Apache Monitor UI, but not start the actual server? Maybe there are details in the Apache error log.

This might be due to changes in the configuration files (check which ones were last modified), but it's also also possible that disk errors have corrupted some files, so you could run Check Disk also.
