I installed XAMPP a few months ago and it has been working fine. But recently when I open it I get an error of a port being occupied.
Now whenever I start my XAMPP and run apache services I get these errors:
Apache Service detected with wrong path
Change XAMPP Apache settings or
Uninstall/disable the other service manually first
Found Path: ERROR: Not Able To Open Service Manager
Expected Path: "d:\my local server\xampp\apache\bin\httpd.exe" -k runservice
Problem detected!
Port 80 in use by "system"!
Apache WILL NOT start without the configured ports free!
You need to uninstall/disable/reconfigure the blocking application
or reconfigure Apache to listen on a different port
Perhaps Port 80 is being used by some system process?
What do these errors mean and how do I deal with them?
My solution is much easier: Start xampp-control.exe as admin. Then the apparent error gone.
I`ve not changed any port or stopped any process.
