HI Bryan
Thanks very much for helping me out.. I changed the names as you
mentioned and tried to start apache but it does not start. it still
has the red dot. when i go to start services Windows attempts to
start the service but says "windows could not start apache2.2 on the
local computer view system log for details" I am enclosing system log
for your perusal
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The Apache service named
reported the following error: >>>
httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 212 of C:/Program Files/Apache
Software Foundation/Apache2.2/conf/httpd.conf: </Directory> without
matching <Directory> section
