downloading XAMPP was created by dm418
I have followed the instructions to download XAMPP but once it has downloaded, a control panel appears. I start the programmes, but for some reason 'Tomcat' doesn't seem to want to start. I have downloaded Java as prompted. I am unable to start using Xerte. Please can someone advice on this technical issue? I am using a home PC.
Here is the log window:

11:38:09 [Tomcat] Status change detected: stopped
11:38:09 [Tomcat] Error: Tomcat shutdown unexpectedly.
11:38:09 [Tomcat] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
11:38:09 [Tomcat] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
11:38:09 [Tomcat] Press the Logs button to view error logs and check
11:38:09 [Tomcat] the Windows Event Viewer for more clues

Hi dm418, I only start up Apache and MySQL to begin using Xerte. The other XAMPP programs are for more robust web development needs I believe.
Cheers,
Keith
