Or use the commands: net start apache2 and net stop apache2 Teddy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joshua Kogut" <jmkogut@xxxxxxxxx> To: <users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>; <sanguis@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, October 03, 2005 22:15 PM Subject: Re: [users@httpd] Re: starting the daemon from a command prompt Or just add the Apache bin folder to your include path by going to your system properties window [windows key + pause/break] in the advanced tab, in environment variables. Doulbe click the [path] line, and then add a semicolon and then your apache directory, after you are done with that, and restart, you will be able to type in apache in the dos command prompt and have apache started. Of course, if you set the service type of Apache to automatic, you wont have to start it via the command prompt...
