Well, before you start playing with your shortcut, is there a conf
subdirectory below the working directory specified in your shortcut, and
does that conf subdirectory contain your configuration file (which had

These are the two important lines. Apache was compiled to expect the
config to be at /apache/conf/httpd.conf. Is it?
