Topic: Apache Server root Directory

[sunilpandya]

I have downloaded Apache 2.4.25, to install as windows 10 service i have used command c:/Apache/Apache24/bin httpd.exe-k install.

It shows 'Apache2.4 Service is Successfully Installed'
Reported Error Must be corrected before Service Can be Started.
httpd.exe Syntax error 'C:/Apache/Apache24 /conf/httd.conf
Serveroor Must be A Valid Directory.
I have changed as C:/Apache/Apache24 as Server root from C:/Apache24

I then issued command Apache/Apache24/bin httpd.exe -k start, but it shows again the same error Server root must be Valid Directory.

So what should be server root directory Actually?

Looks you installed C:/Apache/Apache24, default install is C:/Apache24 .

First delete the servive with c:/Apache/Apache24/bin httpd.exe-k uninstall and then c:/Apache24/bin httpd.exe-k install.

I see still you have somewhere C:/Apache/Apache24/

So start clean and install again in c:/Apache24
