RE: os-windows/3827: after "typical" installation, apache cannot be started, nor be installed as a service.

[Wenhu Lu <we...@BerkeleyNet.com>]

My point is that the contents in the "conf" directory
were missing, which caused the failure in starting apache.
Please try to install it by yourself (I assume you didn't,
or you will see the problem very easily.)

State-Changed-Why:
It is not clear from your report what you did. To install as a
a service you should go to Start->Programs->Apache Web Server->
Install Apache as a Service. Apache will be installed as a
Service that will Auto start on reboot. To start it after 
installation of the service you will either have to reboot 
or go to Services in the Control Panel, then highlight Apache
and click Start. Please follow this procedure and let us know 
what happens.
