I install 2.2.6 as suggested. When it tried to install the service, I got (OS 5)Access is denied : Failed to open the Apache 2.2 Service. I tracked this error down and it seems to be a problem with MS Vista. So, I guess I should have mentioned I was using that OS. The problem has something with Vista not considering user with admin rights the same as being the admin. So, the only way I could install the service was to open a MS-DOS window as admin and then run the commands. Everything appears to be working now. William A.
