jules Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Returning to Apache and MySQL after 15 year hiatus ... Running Vista.Downloaded and unpacked to C:\start.exe starts tray icon Tried a few dozen times and finally got standalone up ONCE. Changed passwords.Restarted computer and still cannot reliably start standalone.Cannot EVER start as services.If I STOP services and stand-alone repeatedly I eventually get ports released and can start stand-alone. Apache log says Apache started twice, then a child process terminated unexpectedly without error code shown. Question: After unpacking what needs to be changed so that the servers start at all as services, or so that they can start reliably stand-alone? I know it's supposed to be all set to go. It's not. So what is missing? I'd like to use MySql Workbench, but it won't work, so it says, unless MySql is a service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This implies UAC and other restrictions.Have you ever tried to run Start.exe with "Run as Administrator"?Check out the info at http://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php/5....Vista_and_W7.29, which tells just how to do what you want.
