[Help!] Starting Apache Failed

Hi,

I am installing xampp 1.8.2 for windows. My OS is win7. When installation is successfully done, I tried to start apache. But it says:
12:51:25 [Apache] Attempting to start Apache app...
12:51:26 [Apache] Status change detected: running
12:51:27 [Apache] Status change detected: stopped
12:51:27 [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
12:51:27 [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
12:51:27 [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
12:51:27 [Apache] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
12:51:27 [Apache] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues
12:51:27 [Apache] If you need more help, copy and post this
12:51:27 [Apache] entire log window on the forums

Could anyone help me to fix it? Thank you.

Can you post your config file?

 

If you are using the latest Skype, go to Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> connection. Disable the "Use port 80 and 443 for alternatives for incoming connections"

Sign Out and Close all Skype windows. Try restart your Apache again.

 

Thanks, Your post really work properly
