Zorro,
Tried your solution but must be doing something wrong. Still get the
Winnt error message during load and the follow up No Apache 2 service
found. How did you get around this?
Tks.

Had the same problem. Apparently, the folder/file containing
WinNT services was removed in Vista, since it is a total rewrite and
does not use NT code. Have not heard of a solution to the
problem. This may have to be reported as a "bug" in the Apache load
program.
Below I am giving solution to my own post, having finally figured it
out after several hours (days!):
The culprit in Vista is UAC (User Account Control). Microsoft went
overboard with its security obssession in providing the most secure
environment, which results in serious compatibility issues, compromising
well known and liked apps like Apache webserver and God knows what
else!
Turn off UAC in Vista and reinstall Apache from Add/Remove programs
(Select Change and then Repair). Now Apache will be installed as a service.
You will still not be able to launch the Apache monitor. Remove the shortcut
from Start menu so you do not get that annoying error message everytime you
boot up.
Let me now if you find out anything more. Tks.

and Vista
Hello Everyone,
I
recently upgraded to Windows Vista from Win XP. Apache server 2.2.4 with
mod_jk/1.2.20 was working fine. Then after the upgrade, I could not open
the Apache monitor.
I uninstalled and reinstalled ver 2.2.4, and during
installation, I get the error msg: Cannot open WinNT services.
Really appreciate if anyone can help.
Sincerely,
Jimmy
