Windows NT
>Description:
I've been successfully running version 1.3.6 on my NT workstation.  I 
downloaded and installed version 1.3.9 over 1.3.6 and to my dismay, the install 
program created several new links in the start menu entry for apache that 
didn't work, and also caused apache server not to work when it was started as a 
service manually.  It coudln't even be "installed" as a service becuase the new 
link to "install apache as NT service" pointed instead to "My computer" and had 
none of the extra -d "E:\Program Files..." stuff that the previous "install as 
service" links did.  On top of that, Apache wouldn't even function unless it 
was run as a console app from the dos prompt.  Unless the version/install 
package I downloaded got somehow corrupted (I downloaded it again to make sure) 
then someone made a serious error in the install package/program for the apache 
NT version 1.3.9.  I also tried uninstalling all the apache components and just 
installing 1.3.9. this produced the same results.  I'm now back on 1.3.6 till 
this serious bug gets worked out.  I'm guessing you guys probably have been 
swamped with reports in regards to this issue but I saw no mention of it on you 
site so I decided to try and speed the fix process by writing in myself.
>How-To-Repeat:
just install apache 1.3.9 over 1.3.6 on an NT workstation. or install it as a 
standalone and try to get it to install as/run as a service.  The links dont' 
even work.
>Fix:
fix your install program and double check teh apache exe to make sure its built 
correctly.
