Subject: Apache 2.0 Uninstaller From: john cage <johncage01@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 24 Apr 2005 12:23:52 -0700 (PDT) To: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I hope that I'm posting this to the proper group. I had installed Apache 2.0.53 on my XPpro box with PHP & MySQL and had Apache working flawlessly. I uninstalled it and since then, every attempt to reinstall has been met with an Apache that will notwork
I too did this with AFAIR same results. I got it working by deleting the apache directories afer uninstalling. Re-install then worked well.
Mike (even though it appears to be working fine in the
system tray in that it starts, stops, restarts, etc; just fine and for all intents and purposes, *appears*to be working.When you type http://localhost in the address bar of either of the browsers where it worked before, it willnot work (times out, could not find page, etc. Netstat shows it sometimes but not sometimes as beingactive even though it's in the system tray as being active and netstat shows as listening to 127.0.0.1:80 even though httpd.conf is set to 'Listen 80'. In frustration, I installed Apache ver 1.33 and it worked great with the exception of not having an indicator in my system tray and what I thought might be an issue with my phpMyAdmin so I uninstalled it in hopes of getting Apache 2 going. Later only to find out that Apache 1.33 will not re-install properly either. This is interesting to note in that both versions of Apache installed flawlessly and ran flawlessly with all of my other software running (firewall, virus software, etc etc) and though I've gone to great pains to shut this off, uninstall that prior to reinstalling Apache, nothing has worked so my friends, DO NOT EVER uninstall Apache from the box you presently have it installed on because you will very likely not get it running again. At any rate, I recently had the good fortune of corresponding with a fellow who appears to understand Apache quite well. He gave me several ideas of which I tried and nothing seemed to work. Hopefully others can help who may have had this experience. My error log WAS NOT this way with the initial installation but now is filled with lines related to Win32DisableAcceptEx (I noted several other people on the net in various groups trying to overcome similar symptoms but never saw a 'fix'), though when I have installed this line at the end of my httpd.conf file, it has not helped and rather, has *seemed* to have been associated with my inability to see Apache as running in Netstat. A long first post, eh? :-) Any help or additional thoughts on this whole subject will be greatly appreciated. I HAVE to think at this point that something in the Apache uninstaller has been haunting me but am not sure and hope to get past this experience.
