[users@httpd] Apache (Win32) consoole window
Is it possible to run Apache Win32 in a hidden console Window, or without a console
window at all - just as a process?
It's running on Windows 2000/XP (not server).

There are many ways to do this
depending on how and why.
Windows Scripting with VBScript scripts.
Adjust the scripts to your needs, then save
the VBScript script file to any folder. Then
in a command prompt window set to the
VBScript script's folder, use the Windows
Script Host (WSH) engine cscript.exe
by typing:
cscript.exe VBScriptFileName.vbs
Remember one can also use the script
language of your desire with the Windows
Script Host (WSH) engines.

C:\Documents and Settings\Name>cscript.exe hiddenprocess.vbs
Nothing showing saying notepad,
so to see if notepad started just
press CTRL & ALT & DEL to get
the Windows Task Manager or run
one of the many programs that list
programs: tasklist.exe, tlist.exe,
pslist.exe or qprocess.exe.
C:\Documents and Settings\Name>qprocess notepad.exe
Returns
USERNAME SESSIONNAME ID PID IMAGE
>name console 0 1072 notepad.exe
And yep there it is too in the Windows Task Manager.
Either kill this notepad.exe process in
the Windows Task Manager or use one
of the many kill programs: kill.exe, pskill.exe,
taskkill.exe, or run the following VBScript
script file:

That's the way Apache2 runs on my XP home ed. (sp1) box.
administrative tools > component services > apache2 > properties
path to executable -> "E:\Apache Group\Apache2\bin\Apache.exe" -k runservice
startup type -> automatic
It's been a little while since I d/l'd and installed from the apache
website on my xp box but I'm sure it was real easy, or I never would've
gotten this far. :)

You can run it as a service; Its something like: apache -k install "SERVICE
NAME" (in the apache.exe directory); look in the documentation for running
it as a service and something called apachemonitor.exe (which is an optional
tray utility).

Is it possible to run Apache Win32 in a hidden console Window, or without a
console
window at all - just as a process?
It's running on Windows 2000/XP (not server).
