I want to restart it because I made some changes in the php.ini to adjust the max_file_size
. I need to restart it so that it will take effect however I can\'t f
I suggest using wamp server, or lamp in linux. here's a guide how to enable in ubuntu linux.
You can go to your xampp instalation directory, and run
xampp_stop.exe
xampp_start.exe
This will restart Apache and Mysql.
Only Apache: apache_stop.bat apache_start.bat
Or use the control panel, by clicking on Stop, then Restart, on the Apache line Service.

You don't need to scrap XAMPP over this issue. There are no missing or buggy .dlls in the newer versions that I know about. The control panel just has to be run as administrator in Vista or Windows 7.
Right click the control panel shortcut or .exe file icon. Click on properties. select the compatibility tab. then in the privliege level box at the bottom, check the "Run this program as an administrator" box.
Click apply and then load up XAMPP.
In the version I am using, from the control panel just click the stop button for the given app and then the start button.
in windows 7 go to xampp folder, then go to apache folder -> then to bin folder there you will find something called apache monitor you can use this restart the apache services
It works fine
you can also kill the httpd (apache) process and then start apache again from xampp control panel
