I have been trying to install Apache, PHP and MySQL on my XP machine.
At first I had Apache and PHP working but kept having MySQL problems.
I went to a bunch of other boards, posted, followed the feedback and really got screwed up where nothing worked. Finally out of desperation, I remove all the programs, and started re-installing.
Now after I install Apache I always get this error:
| Quote: | | [error] (OS 2)The system cannot find the file specified. : No installed service named "Apache2". |
This acts like a Windows registry problem, but when I open the registry in REGEDIT, I can see the entries for Apache there. I even went so far, on the last install, to clean out all Apache entries in the registry.
I am install 2.0.55 with the MSI file and I think there is something missing in that install library set, causing this error, but not sure.
Too green on Apache to know.
Can I get some help, I'm loosing my mind on this!

Again what do you get when you run in a DOS box : apache.exe ?
Where and when do you get then the error you mentioned:
[error] (OS 2)The system cannot find the file specified. : No installed service named "Apache2".

Hi,
Carter's partner here. He gets the message he posted. He actually did Mark + Copy from the Command Prompt window.

Thanks to all of you who participated,
I Did everything that was suggested to me and I was still backed into a corner. The problem was found when I went to the register and dicovered that I was over run with old apache and php intries. It took over 2 hours to remove all of the old interies. Once I removed all of the old stuff, I was able to enter the new apache and php programs and it ran perfectly. I did have to tweek the php.ini and the httpd conf files. Once that was accomplished the Apache and php ran perfectly.
Once again i thank you all for helping me
I learned a great deal about the machanics evolved in both Apache and the installation of php.
