Hi, I have since v2.0.32 these two problems despite of the newest patches:
"Fix the working directory *for WinNT/2K/XP services only* to change to the Apache directory (one level above the location of Apache.exe, in the case that Apache.exe resides in bin/.) Solves the case of ServerRoot /foo paths where /foo was not on the same drive as /winnt/system32. [William Rowe]" First, I'm the admin, the Apache service has admin rights, no problems when Apache runs as console app., and no problem when Apache runs as service on a Win2000 server; only XP makes troubles. 1. If Directory points to a mapped network drive (e.g. R:) the service does not start: Syntax error: <Directory "r:"> path is invalid. 2. If DocumentRoot points to a mapped network drive (e.g. R:) the service does not start: Syntax error: DocumentRoot must be a directory. UNC-names are accepted instead of the mapped drives (local drives are ok too), but now mod_perl.so does not load: The Apache service named reported the following error: >>> Cannot load F:/Apache2/modules/mod_perl.so into server: The module was not found. and PHP has similar problems. Therefore I have to use mapped drivenames. Juergen
