I got 1.3.4 off of apache.org and used the setup (typical). No problems reported. However, it didn't work and I noticed a lot of files .conf in the .tmp directory. So I moved those over to .conf. When I ran it from the start menu, no log file created. So I went to DOS prompt. There I got errors on line 93 "serverroot must be a valid directory". The registry entry was there, and as I played with it I could see that the DOS error message was reading from the registry. But it wouldn't move to the next error until I put the actual path in the httpd.conf file. I had the same problem with Document Root "DocumentRoot must be a directory". My guess is that httpd.conf is not reading the registry entry. >How-To-Repeat: Clean install of NT version. Verify that installation completes (no files in .tmp) and that serverroot and document root can remain "@@serverroot/?" - if so then its unique to my install. >Fix: No. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, ] [you need to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line ] [and leave the subject line UNCHANGED.
