I see you are using an old libapreq2. Have you tried using 2.08 from http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/
What Perl distribution are you using ? The combination Active state 820, libapreg2.08 (from uwinnipeg) and modperl2.03 (also from uwinnipeg) with windows 2003sp1 and XPsp2 works fine. I have a small installation instruction (just forget the imageMagick part) at http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8904 , only the libapreq2 installation is missing there. If a restart is working with a the clean installation then the problem might be in your code or configuration parameters. ------ Thomas den Braber > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: Foo JH [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Verzonden: vrijdag 15 juni 2007 11:05 > Aan: Perrin Harkins > CC: modperl@perl.apache.org > Onderwerp: Re: modperl2 + apache2.2 unable to restart > > Perrin Harkins wrote: > > On 6/14/07, Foo JH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> I was hoping to migrate my apps to the apache2.2 platform.
