I'm trying on Windows Vista Business (final).

After following the steps:

- Installation of Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable
- Unzipping all the files in the c:\apache2 folder

I run a DOS window and move to the Apache2\bin folder, where I try to run the httpd.exe. I then get the following error:

C:\Apache2\bin>httpd.exe
httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 42 of C:/Apache2/conf/httpd.conf: ServerRoot must be a valid directory

And that's as far as I get. Has anyone know how to fix this? I'm ready to test anything.

Update!!!! I was actually on Apache folder rather than Apache2 folder. Now all seems to be working Wink
