apache server stop working

Question

My zend application stop apache server. It was working fine on Xampp 1.7.4 but for some reason i have to shift my all projects on xampp 1.7.0. So whenever i tried to open my application in browser i got "Apache server stop working" window only for my zend project. Other projects(cakephp) are working fine.

I checked my log files and found these line:

i read somewhere in the forum that if i copy 2 dll files libmysql.dll and php5apache.dll inside windows/system32 folder then it will solve "Parent: child process exited with status 3221225477 -- Restarting." problem. But it is not working.

Please help.

Answer 1

I found solution that php programs using PDO crashed apache. Download php-5.2.13-Win32-VC6-x86.zip and unzip, then copy libmysql.dll into xampp\apache\bin and xampp\php. Restart apache. Problem Solved :)
