I keep telling everyone, NO, I didn't! The error was SOLELY caused by the
presence of the piped Customlog directives using rotatelogs.exe. When I comment
those out, regardless what editor I use, the problem goes away. I only began
having this problem AFTER I first tried to add those directives, and it
continues until after I comment them out.

You edited it in utf-8. I hacked this long ago to ignore the leading
bytes but it looks like you might have corrupted them (it's supposed to
be a three byte sequence, and somehow you'd truncated it to two bytes?)

I have a rather bizarre httpd.conf error with Apache 2.2 on Windows
2000; I attempted to make some rather simple edits to the logfile
portion of it, and now when I test, start,or restart the server I get
the following error displayed in the console (DOS) window:
Syntax error on line 1 of C:/Program Files/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2/conf/httpd.conf:
Invalid command '\xff\xfe#', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module
not included in the server configuration
What the heck is going on? Not only did I not edit the first line, all
it contains is the standard comment line that has been there all along.
