I have installed Xampp on windows 7. When I try to run code I get the error

Warning: Module 'openssl' already loaded in line 0

This is the same code I have run on the pc before, all I have done is reinstalled Win 7 and a clean install of XAMPP

You seem to have the line

extension=php_openssl.dll

twice in your php.ini file and/or subfiles.

You need to find all relevant php.ini files in your xampp directory and remove or comment out one of the module directives like this:

;extension=php_openssl.dll

After a server restart, this should solve it.
