When I try to start Apache as a service it starts and then fails with the following errors:

Im on a WinXP x64 Windows installation.

When run manually apache works perfectly.

Can anyone give me a clue as to why Apache fails in this manner?

Cheers,
Tom

According to this post and Wikipedia: WinXP x64 cannot run 32-bit programs, like Apache 2.2.6 from Apache Lounge, as a Windows Service.

This explains why it only runs from the command line.

FYI - Jorge Schrauwen provides 64-bit binaries for Apache 2.2.4 here.
He also has some notes about how to build 64-bit Apache 2.2 using Visual Studio 2005 here.
