Apache - MySQL Service detected with wrong path. / Ports already in use

Question

I\'m getting the following errors when I launch XAMPP.

12:35:23  [main]    Initializing Control Panel
12:35:23  [main]    Windows Version:   64-bit
12:35:23          


        

Answer 1

This is how I solved similar problem:

1. Launch XAMPP Control Panel.
2. Uninstall the MySQL service: click 'green check' button beside MySQL, under Service column. The 'green check' button will change into 'red cross' button.
3. Exit XAMPP, and relaunch it again.
4. Click Start.

I hope it can help solve your problem too.
