I've just tried Apache/2.0.48 now, and that doesn't seem to have the problem -- i.e. "apache.exe -DAPACHE2 -X" does do single process mode.
A bug in Apache/1.3.29, maybe?
That's strange, may be ask at httpd-dev?
OK, that wasn't strictly true, as I've now found that Apache 2 is OK without the space ;) What I meant was that the usage message printed by "apache.exe -h" for both Apache 1 and Apache 2 shows a space:-
Usage: apache [-D name] [-d directory] [-f file] [-n service] [-C "directive"] [-c "directive"] [-k signal] [-v] [-V] [-h] [-l] [-L] [-S] [-t] [-T] -D name : define a name for use in <IfDefine name> directives [...]
To me, this is quite natural since all the other options (-d, -f, -n, etc...) also have a space between the option letter and the argument. Is that not normal usage for "getopt()"-style arguments anyway? I've never typed "-DFoo" when I meant "-D Foo" ;)
-Dfoo is the way you pass define constants to C compilers at compile time. So it helps a lot to use the same idiom to pass define constants at startup time. But of course, if that doesn't work, then your fix is right.
