I've happily been running Apache 2.2.3 on my Windows 7 desktop and laptop for some time (months/years) without any problem. However in the last couple of days the Apache2.2 service in the Windows snap in on both PCs has refused to start.
When attempting to start the service the error received is:
Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectly.
If I run httpd.exe directly from the command line then Apache starts up and I can merrily run my local development sites without problem.
Does anybody have any suggestions as to why the Apache2.2 service would suddenly stop working?
EDIT
The Windows Event Log shows the following:

Have you tried re-installing? Or go to "Uninstall Programs", select Apache, and click Repair (if it has a repair option). – BenjiWiebe – 2013-02-01T13:34:51.587
@BenjiWiebe - yes I've been there it's made no difference. A complete uninstall and re-install produces the same error. – Simon Bennett – 2013-02-01T13:38:19.010
Have you checked Apache's
error.log
, or maybe the Windows Event Viewer would be of some help? – BenjiWiebe – 2013-02-01T13:39:57.323The Apache
error.log
doesn't contain anything of use. The last entry is back in December 2012. The Event viewer references a faulting module oflibapr-1.dll
but doesn't shed any more light than that. – Simon Bennett – 2013-02-01T13:49:18.2401I've edited the question to include the full event log entry. – Simon Bennett – 2013-02-01T13:53:10.313
Probably isn't much help... http://superuser.com/questions/464143/windows-7-exception-code-0xc0000005-issues and also try a Google Search of
