Firstly enter cmd    Then write     sc delete MySQL     After that restart your computer  When restarting your computer and opening your xampp  you can see cross symbol on the MySQL  Click the cross symbol and click the start  That s all

In my case this issue caused because my local machine used to the one MySQL service installed earlier at 3006 port  Thus I modified both my ini  C  xampp mysql bin my ini  and php ini  C  xampp php php ini  files replaced port 3006 to 3008  After that I ve created a new service running the command described above by Tommer   sc exe create  mysqlweb  binPath   C  xampp mysql bin mysqld exe --defaults-file c  xampp mysql bin my ini mysqlweb

its because you probaly installed wamp server and uninstall it but wampmysql exe still running and using the default mysql port go to msconfig under services tab  uncheck wampmysqld to deactivate it reboot the computer should work

To delete existing service is not good solution for me  because on port 3306 run MySQL  which need other service  But it is possible to run two MySQL services at one time  one with other name and port   I found the solution here  http   emjaywebdesigns com xampp-and-multiple-instances-of-mysql-on-windows   Here is my modified setting  Edit your    my ini    file in c  xampp mysql bin     Change all default 3306 port entries to a new value 3308  edit your    php ini    in c  xampp php and replace 3306 by 3308  Create the service entry - in Windows command line type     sc exe create  mysqlweb  binPath   C  xampp mysql bin mysqld exe   --defaults-file c  xampp mysql bin my ini mysqlweb    Open Windows Services and set Startup Type  Automatic  Start the service

This is how I solved similar problem     Launch XAMPP Control Panel  Uninstall the MySQL service  click  green check  button beside MySQL  under Service column  The  green check  button will change into  red cross  button  Exit XAMPP  and relaunch it again  Click Start    I hope it can help solve your problem too

Ok it s very easy actually to solve this   most of you who are presented with this problem probably don t even realize you don t have the full software yet installed    I tried looking online with little success except some1 mentioned you need to look for those services running already  Forexample problem with filezilla you look in task manager for filezilla and you stop the process then you click the X in the xampp control pannel to install filezilla and then click run and it should start the service normally showing you a green lite with a check mark   Same goes for mysql issues  As for the apache problem  it usualy is a problem with the port being overtaken by skype or some other program  but you can find info how to solve that on the net easily
