# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.

# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.

# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.

Hi,

The hosts file has absolutely nothing to do with the subject of your "Apache won't start" message.

Please explain clearly what exactly your problem is, starting with : READ (and answer) BEFORE YOU ASK A QUESTION

This is the error message when I run httpd.exe -k start:

Hi,

For fuck's sake, why don't you answer the questions asked?

Result of Right-Click Wampmanager icon -> Tools -> Check port 80

> This is the error message when I run httpd.exe -k start
Wrong syntax of the command. It is not httpd.exe that should be started, but the associated service.

It could be that apache is set to automatic on restart. Meaning apache is already using that port. Go to services in your XAMPP control and look for apache (whatever version you have). Look for startup type and double-click it to set it to manual.

Hi,

Here, It is Wampserver, not XAMPP.
With Wampserver, Apache service is always set to manual.
