The 'service' mode has all sorts of peculiar behaviors. You've identified exactly what I'm seeing today.

I'm just not > sure where, or how to do it. Definately the biggest 'bug' of the hour is the service logging. It looks like some changes a little ways back in main.c borked us. And the second bug is the lack of -d -f args in the service's Parameters registry key ... ConfigArgs is coming up empty. The final bug is the simple one. Why paths can't merge right in the service. I suspect that's the whole LocalService/non-Network situation going on... but it's worthless to debug without resolving the bigger error logging fish :) The only real answer is moving the service code into apr, pre-main() or in tandem with apr_initialize() [starting with apr_app_main and getting the service stuff tied in.] But I wanted to wait for .33 on those changes.
