Re: apache2 reports bad system call

[Robert Khachikyan]

Initially when I installed sshd, it was said to have the CYGWIN 
environment variable to 'ntsec'.

After reading your forwarded link, I switched it to 'server' and it runs 
ok now...thanx...

Hi,

I successfully have installed and have been using cygwin on my 
windows XP.
Just recently I decided to add a web server. After installing the 
apache2,
it complains of 'Bad system call':

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/apache2
$ /usr/sbin/httpd2.exe
Bad system call

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /etc/apache2
$ /usr/sbin/httpd2.exe -v
Server version: Apache/2.2.2
Server built:   Jun  6 2006 13:28:20


However, when starting the apache1.3.33, I have no problem. But due 
to security,
I'd like for the apache to be up-to-date.....You guys have any 
suggestions?....thanx....


Read the readme?  Sounds to me like apache2 requires IPC via Cygserver.
I would think the readme would talk about this (don't have apache2 
installed
myself so I don't know for sure but then again Max is a pretty 
thorough guy).
If you're looking for more info on Cygserver, see:
