After upgrading to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8 today Apache isn't working anymore. I had this problem when upgrading last time to Windows 8 from Windows 7 and had to re-install all my server components but I don't want to do that this time as I loose all the databases I had before.
Does anyone know what I can do to reconnect my Apache server, PHP and MySQL servers?
Apache 2.2 PHP 5.
You should start the MySQL, Apache and/or WAMP services from services.msc. If cannot find them, you will need to re-install them as services.
In few words, you need to execute the following binaries from an elevated command prompt:
httpd.exe -k install, here is how it works: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/platform/windows.html#winsvcmysqld.exe --install, here is how it works http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/windows-start-service.htmlIf you cannot find them, try this from a command prompt:
cd c:\
dir /s /b mysqld.exe
dir /s /b httpd.exe
Then you will find them.
