This doesn't sound like the Cygwin apache to me. Looking at the package on the web site, it doesn't install 'apache.exe' anywhere. It installs 'httpd.exe' in /usr/sbin though. I suggest that you check your installation and read the docs that comes with apache (/usr/doc/apache*, /usr/doc/Cygwin/apache*) if you haven't already. >but i get an error for allocating memory ???? > >I did that because i don't know how to set the path in cygwin Actually, /usr/sbin usually isn't in your path so this is fine. >I have no etc/profile what i have is etc/profile.d Perhaps your install wasn't successful then. You may want to review your setup logs or just run it again and see if that resolves the problem. >Maybe that's a silly Question but why doesn't the installer automatically >set the path as it did for all the other packages i installed through it ?? >I thought it was meant to do that Right.

For apache, I answered that above. For ash, it's actually a cockpit error. Cygwin installs the 'ash' utility as '/bin/sh'. Try running 'sh' if you want to run 'ash'. >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Larry Hall (RFK Partners, Inc)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "moi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2002 5:50 PM >Subject: Re: problems running apache and passwd comands > > > > At 11:22 AM 4/24/2002, moi wrote: > > >Apache was installed by the setup from the internet > > >its version is > > > > > > > > > Package Version > > >apache 1.3.24-1 > > > > > >The files are present ( httpd.exe ... dlls) when i explore the folder > > >But a bash httpd command will result invariably in command unknown > > > > > > Somehow, you don't have the Cygwin paths set.
