Apache 2.2.4 under Win32 Longhorn

[Mario Brandt <mb...@nasa30.com>]

Hello,
I've tested apache_2.2.4-win32-x86-openssl-0.9.8d.msi under Longhorn Beta 3
(VMware). Only thing that I changed from the default windows setup, was that
I turned off the firewall to test it from my network.

After installation I got an error message "Process successfull executed". I
got that message also after rebooting windows. But Apache works fine! I
hadn't time to test that with PHP yet.

regards
Mario Brandt

Great - it won't be so hard to create apache2.2\conf, htdocs\ as writable
to the administrators group, and "apache2.2\logs", \proxy (\cache?) as
writable by the apache2.2 service user.  Will work on this over the week,
thanks for clarifying!

Right, once when I added 'Full Control' to the 'Program Files'
for Users group, the installer works.
... and with the latest patch ApacheMonitor works as well :)

I'll look as soon as my Longhorn beta is up and running, I'm betting
that this is all related to the permissions and 'no documents in the
application tree' ruleset.  I can't imagine awk's posix fopen/fwrite
code is broken by vista.

Just tracking the Vista problems down.
One problem is the installer. Every awk config rewrite fails
so the installation ends up without config files.
Didn't try with Administrator account directly, but with the
member of the administrators group.

The problem described is probably related to ApacheMonitor,
and I'm still debugging why it fails.
Hope I'll have some answers in few days.

Mladen.

I think Mario's post below is quite clear.  I am wondering, however,
*where* he sees the error message he cites.  A log?  A popup command
window?  An ok box?  Is there additional details (a window caption or
other details?)  Does it continue to happen on each reboot?

But glad to hear this works just fine - it implies we are not far from
working also on Vista, Longhorn's 'end user workstation' cousin.
