    Help, I just downloaded webserv
    Install (double click)
    Go to weberv and double click on start.bat
    - nothing happens.
    I am using Windows XP. Running the start.bat in 'cmd' shows that the 'net start apache2' service name is not valid. Windows was rebooted.

      check and see if there is a service called apache2 under Control Panel -> Administration Tools -> Services
      if there isnt then you need to run this command (with out quites) "apache.exe -D SSL -k install" from with in the apache2 folder (\WebServ\apache2\).

      i would uninstall it, get the latest ver 1.2.6.0 and install that one, it has the fix in it that is causing your bug.

      At a guess I would say you have either IIS or PWS running already on port 80.

      or a bad install of a older version of webserv that didnt like spaces in the install path
      "Program Files"
