http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42095 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-05-27 10:17 ------- It appears that this is due to the virtualization technology in Vista. I found myself in the odd state of being able to see (and modify!) httpd.conf in Emacs, but not in my admin-privileged cmd.exe, or the explorer.... I went off into the woods looking for rootkits for a while... Then it hit me what's going on. It really is creating the httpd.conf file properly. But in the virtual environment the installer (and my original Emacs) were in, this write is virtualized, and everything written ended up in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\virtualStore\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache 2.2\... I started another Emacs, turned off Virtualization on that Emacs, and saw the file as missing. Just like the service did. (It's not just the httpd.conf file, either -- the *.in annd *.awk file stay in the real directory, while they are removed and replaced with their munged counterparts in the virtualized directory. And the install.log ends up in the virtualized directory). This is going to Seriously Confuse Lots of People; I think it's worth putting something up on the download page until this is resolved. Installing it elsewhere is probably the simplest option for people (I haven't tested it!). I'm probably just going to run the service as myself (I'm just doing a dry run on my laptop, rather than doing anything production -- deployment will be on XP, so that should more closely simulate the target install). -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
