I'm running a testing server with XAMPP 1.8.1 with Apache 2.4.3 and PHP 5.4.7 on Windows 7 Home Premium. Everything was working swell yesterday, but today I started receiving this in Apache's error.log:Parent: child process exited with status 3221226356 -- Restarting.
I can't think of any changes in my code that would have caused the problem, and I haven't changed any Apache settings in quite some time. I've tried other searches that deal with status 3221225477, but I want to make sure I'm not missing anything with the different error code.
Does anyone have any experience with this issue?
As suggested in the comments by Amal Murali, upgrading XAMPP solved the issue. Don't know if it deleted a bad file or added a good one, but it worked!
