That worked for me. Iâ??ve added the httpd.exe to my startup folder.It may also work if you change the dependencies of the service to wait to start until windows networking is started. This may simply be a race condition where networking share components don't finish starting before apache gets that far.
---------------- End original message. ---------------------If what William states is in fact what is going on, you could probably still use Apache as a service if you start it manually instead of letting it start automatically.
Change the service properties from automatic to manual and then start it from the service window after you are sure the network is functioning.
