Hi again, Good, news.... and bad Good news is I've found out where the problem is Bad news is I don't know what I'm going to do to fix. I've picked out the bones from the Server_Start.bat file. and run each line manually all the SUBST, SET and START lines from the dos prompt and now I know when the W Drive gets destroyed And this is the line!! start %programit%uniserv.exe "%apacheit%" "%closeit%" As soon as I run this command from the DOS prompt, the W Drive is destroyed. Any suggestions?

Hi Checked for the lib file and the only libmysql.dll was in the Uniform Server directory and yes, I do have skype installed.

Hi Olajide, Thanks for that, but I've already checked all of those and the answers are: Server_start.bat : No Error displayed. No other PHP, Mysql or Apache on the system, I don't have the firewall turned on as I'm not connected to a network at this time. Anti-Virus turned off for the same reason, and port 80 is not blocked. As regards the subst, for W. When I run the bat file to start uniform server, the W drive is created but the problem is between the W drive being created and the apache starting and the browser starting, the W drive dissapears. It is the cause of the drive removal that I can't find, I think If I could get the W drive to remain, I think all the other problems would resolve themselves.

I Don't know if this has been asked before and if It has I appologize I have just grabbed Uniformserver 3.3 and unzipped it to me Laptop. It runx XP prof with SP2 installed. When I click on the Server_Start.bat file is creates the W drive and the broswer starts but then the web page never start. I checked the My Computer and the Wdrive is gone. I've run the bat file from the command line and watched the My Computer window and it does create the W drive , but it then dissapears in about 5 seconds. It's very frustrating. Any advise???
