Fixing Apache Won’t Start in XAMPP Control Panel for window



Hi!
If you had a problem with your XAMPP, especially for Apache, you must read this tips to solved the problem. Sometime Apache won’t work or running very well when we need to do our special work or even in busy time.
If you try to running Apache from XAMPP Control Panel, and didn’t work, even you try to hundred click Start button, this tips for you.
May look like this:

That error happen because Apache is using Port 80, and the bad news Skype also using the same port number. How can that be?
To fix that, if you not use Skype, you can close Skype, but not that easy with click the Close button. You can close Skype from Tray Window, right click on the Skype icon and close.

Now open XAMPP Control Panel, and try to running again Apache by click Start button.
If still didn’t work, open your Task Manager, try to search Apache HTTP Server in tab Process, click and hit End Process.
And once again click Start button in XAMPP Control Panel to start Apache.

If still didn’t work again, in Task Manager, Process tab, try to search Skype, because sometime Skype won’t exit very well.
