Error 997 (Apache2) Fix

[burtrom]

I've found a fix that worked for me.

When starting Plesk I was getting

Error 997 at Start service apache2: Overlapped I/O operation in progress

Here's what I did to fix it.

In a command prompt, go to \Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\admin\bin (or wherever you have Plesk installed)

type the following:

apache -k uninstall
apache -k install

This will uninstall the Plesk Control Panel Service and the re-install it.

Then you should be able to start the Control Panel.

Hope this helps.
