[users@httpd] Upgrading from 2.2.10 to 2.2.19 appears to have messed up Windows
service startup
Just upgraded from 2.2.10 to 2.2.19 [*], and Windows service won't start
-- it gives me two lines in the error log (LogLevel is set to debug)
claiming that it's starting up:
Starting the Apache2.2 service
The Apache2.2 service is running.
Then it silently dies.
Running httpd from the command-line seems to work fine, giving
reasonable messages in the logs and serving pages correctly, but using
httpd -k start or the Windows service manager to attempt to start the
service never leaves the parent process running more than a second or two.
Given that my configuration hasn't changed, except for the upgrade, does
anyone have any ideas?
*To upgrade, I uninstalled, then installed with the openssl-enabled MSI
-- the MSI package didn't seem to want to upgrade in place, and kept
complaining that the product with that ID was already installed, or
words to that effect.

Apache 2 services log to the windows application event log, have you looked there yet?

Ahh, thanks! That managed to jar my memory, and I realized I'd been
using a non-default user for the service before the upgrade, which had
naturally gotten messed up. So one simple fix later, and I'm back up and
running.
Thanks to all for helping! :)

The way I upgraded to 2.2.19 was first copying my configuration file
somewhere safe; then uninstalling apache from the servers; then start a
fresh install of apache 2.2.19. You then need to copy your old
configuration file back to the server so that you don't need to waste
any more time.
Caveat: I upgraded from 2.2.17 >> 2.2.19 so perhaps it was easy.

I think so, and in any case I used httpd -k uninstall/install and even
config myself a few times to see if that would make a difference.
I wondered if the user account configuration for the service was wrong,
but I'm not totally sure what it ought to be in any case.

Did that uninstall and reinstall the service?
