Hello,

I am trying to install Apache httpd 2.2.4 on my laptop which is running XP home edition (SP2). Every time I try to run it, I get the following error message from Visual Studio Just-In-Time debugger (which opens on my system anytime a program crashes..): An unhandled win32 exception occured in httpd.exe [3764]. It asks me if I want to debug it in the debugger, I say no and then get the following error message: Error - The requested operation has failed.

I was getting this message right out of the box without making any changes to httpd.conf. After reading these and other forums, I added the following to httpd.conf:

EnableSendfile Off
EnableMMAP Off
Win32DisableAcceptEx

Same results happen. I am not running anything from the list of programs that are known to cause problems with apache. I have disabled the firewall. There is no error.log.

Here is what happens when I run it from the command line with the debug options.

httpd -w
[Thu Apr 19 00:52:37 2007] [notice] Disabled use of AcceptedEx() Winsock2 API
(then the debug window opens.. same message)

httpd -e debug

(and then the same crash as described earlier..)

I am out of ideas. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, tried running as a process instead of starting with the system, and nothing works. If you guys can think of anything else to try.. please let me know! Thank you for your help.

Regards,
David

I downloaded it from the link at http://httpd.apache.org (it may have been one of the mirrors listed on there, I can't recall exactly which one..)

Thanks,
David
