I am trying to get my website up and I am having some problems when starting my XAMPP Apache server
00:42:21 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
00:42:21 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
00:42:21 [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
00:42:21 [Apache] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
00:42:21 [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
00:42:21 [Apache] If you need more help, copy and post this
00:42:21 [Apache] entire log window on the forums
I tried the solutions from here with no success
What I tried is:
net stop httpI have had no success with adding the security certificate and now Apache doesn't even start
I know this is a pretty common question, and I have read lots of the answers of that question and tried them with no success.
Here are all my modifications to my httpd.conf file:
Listen 8080
ServerName localhost:8080
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.com
RedirectMatch 301 ^/$ /Website/Main.html
</VirtualHost>

I reinstalled XAMPP lots "thanks" for the help
