Something is blocking the ports. Maybe Windows Firewall. Why are you using XAMPP though ? I hope it's not for production use..

[Illucius]

You mean at the control interface you click "Start" and it refuses to launch ? If so uninstalling the webserver and restarting the dedi. then the re-installation of XAMPP should allow apache to run properly (or it has for me in the past)
But why use xampp? IIS is much more user-friendly, unless you're using a unix-based os...

If your on a Windows based server then the firewall is disabled since it only runs with IIS. I would suggest getting rid of Xampp its the most popular but also the most popular pile of ^$@%. If you cant or dont understand how to configure a good web server like NGINX with PHP and MySQL. Then I suggest you try something like AppServ. Its a lot better and open source so i can guarantee its a lot safer to use in the long run. As for Xampp it always has problems with the web server running but not working.

dont use xampp, use apache and mysql community server 5

[Jolin88]

In many Dedicated servers, IIS is installed and running by default, when you try to run a webserver like xampp, IIS prevents it from starting becausing it's already occupying the port, solution : Disable IIS (and the firewall), or use IIS

I Fixed thanks though Firewall was blocking the ports
