>Description:
I have installed Apache 1.3.4 three times in Win95. Each time, when I click 
"Apache Server" on the Start menu, a DOS window opens, about one sentence is 
printed on the screen, and the DOS window closes well before I can read even 
the first word. I've tried running Apache several times after each install. 
Always the same result.


Before my last install, I searched the bug database and found reference from an 
earlier to the need to rename the extension of .conf files. So, I installed and 
checked all the .conf files. Only highperformance.conf appeared to need a 
change. I made the change and started Apache. Same result as above.


Another thing I noticed. I did the first install to Program Files/Apache. When 
the installation was complete, I got a message saying the computer needed to be 
restarted. I restarted it. Apache didn't work. I uninstalled and was pleasantly 
surprised to find that the entire Apache directory had been removed. I made the 
second installation to Apache's default (Program Files/Apache Group/Apache). 
This time, at the end of the installation process, I got a screen asking me 
whether I want to view the readme file and a "Finish" button. This screen did 
not appear after the first install. There was no indication of a need to 
restart the computer. When I uninstalled the second installation, the directory 
was not deleted. I did the third installation to Program Files/Apache and this 
time got the readme file/finish screen as in the second installation. I've not 
yet uninstalled this set up.
