Hello:
During the past few years I have attempted to upgrade my old apache 1.3.22 (cygwin binary distro) to a newer 2.x version. With EVERY attempt, I have thrown up my hands because of different problems with every released version. I noticed within the past year there was a 2.2.6 binary package for cygwin available for downloaded. I have questioned the cygwin's mailing list for some help. All discussions on this list (2.2.6) have been centered on the questioned of orphaning which is of no help to me.

Now my problem ...
The package of 2.2.6 on cygwin's site is dated Sep of 2007 which is prior to official major release of cygwin 1.7. When I attempt to start apache I always get the error "bad system call". No other helpful information. I even tried setting LogLevel to "info" and I still get the same information. I've tried several options but I need some hints on debugging. I first tried to start without modifying original httpd.conf file. Same error. Edited the file to reflect my configuration: same error. The -t options reports syntax OK.

If not too difficult, I would like to take one more stab at it before I give up on another version. How can I get some more debugging info, if there is any.
