Hi,
I am also using modperl 2.03 with Apache 2.2 under Windows XP, and I have
very often problems when trying to restart the web server.
I use the following command:
net stop apache2.2
It tries to stop and after a few tens of seconds it reports that the server
cannot be stopped.
If I try to start the web server immediately after this, using
net start apache2.2
it complains that the server cannot start because the port is used.
If I use again the command
net stop apache2.2
it gives a strange error telling that this command is not available for the
specified service, or something like that.
But I have discovered that the OS keeps trying to stop the service, and
after some more time it stoppes the web server, and I can start it again
fine.
Maybe my experience helps.
Octavian

I'm actually new to both Apache and mod_perl (a few weeks!), but if I were
in your situation, one thing I would try is to remove apreq2 and mod_perl
and try starting Apache 2.2 without them. I'd even re-install Apache 2.2
or try running with an empty httpd.conf...
But, just random guessing here...even if they don't work, their error logs
might prove useful.
