Hello!

I installed Apache 1.3.12 on my machine last night, and I got it running
with the following problems. Any help on any of these points would be
greatly appreciated. Win98/C533/64MB/CF4.5 config. TIA!

1) I can't get Apache to run automatically or as a service in the background
   like PWS used to.

Right now, I've got a shortcut to apache.exe in my startup group with
ColdFusion server. Yes, it seems like a huge hack to me, too. So, at
startup, I get a DOS-looking window that says something like "Apache
running...", and indeed it is. But, the DOS window can't be closed without
killing Apache, and even when I try to shut down, I have to Alt-F4 the
window and say yes to the "are you sure" dialog. Then, next time I start
Apache, I get a little message in the DOS window about Apache being started
after it was closed inappropriately last time. Using Start > Programs >
Apache > Stop Apache gives me an error if the Apache DOS window is still
open. Trying to install Apache as a service gives me some error in a DOS
window that closes too quickly for me to read what it says. I just want
Apache to run in the background with no help from me after I get it set up
the first time. In other words, I want it to run "hidden" like PWS did.
(Although it does seem to run faster, which was the reason for the
"upgrade".)

2) The /images and /stylesheets directories aren't working, unless...

If I open up IE and hit my site, no images appear, and the page is rendered
without stylesheets, but is otherwise completely functional (queries run,
CFML is parsed, etc.). So, I can go through and use the site without images
or stylesheets, which is very annoying. But, if I hit Back or use
history.back();, *the page appears like it is supposed to, complete with
images and stylesheets*! Consecutive visits to the same page exhibit the
problems above, but again, using Back or history.back(); will "fix" it.
That's pretty strange. Yes, the directories are properly mapped in CF Admin.
All of the other dir mappings work correctly. Perhaps I need to add the
.jpg/.gif/.css file types to httpd.conf? Code, anyone?

3) Where in httpd.conf is the LoadModule coldfusion_module
   modules/ApacheModuleColdFusion.dll line supposed to go?

At home last night, I stuck it on a new line at the very end of section 1,
after "#ExtendedStatus On" because I didn't see that it was already there,
but commented out. Could this be causing the problem listed above? I'll fix
that straightaway when I get home and see, although I'm sure I'll have the
answer from you guys before then. :-)

4) Any other Apache/Win32/ColdFusion tips?

If you have any tips or can point me to some on-line resources for these
particular problems, I'd really appreciate it. Reply OTL if you feel it is
appropriate.

Thanks again,
Matthew
