Friends, I took the plunge and downloaded Koha, Apache Server, MySQL, and Perl to see if this configuration would work to handle the 30+ libraries I will be setting up this year at extension centers for our college. I put all of this on our NT 4 server here at the main library. Everything seemed to go fine except I got the same error message when I tried to install Koha--Apache 2 could not be located as a service. I got the same error message when I went to the Start Menu and tried to start Apache Server. Any suggestions?

Ask the koha-win32 mailing list, which I think is the best place to ask about that port. Personally, I'd suggest looking into whether you can get a GNU/Linux server, but I would say that, wouldn't I? -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know.

Hi again Doc, I'm glad you've decided to take the plunge. Koha is developed on (and runs best on) linux/unix systems, so most of the people on the general Koha mailing list are more aware of that environment. There is a mailinglist used by the intrepid Win-32 based Koha users where this question might find more answers. So I'm forwarding this email there. Hopefully you'll get an answer soon. It might not hurt to look at devoting a PC to linux and installing Koha there while you're in testing mode though. You might even find that you prefer it :) thanks, -pate Pat Eyler Kaitiaki/manager migrant Linux sys admin the Koha project ruby, shell, and perl geek http://www.koha.org http://pate.eylerfamily.org On Thu, 18 Dec 2003, Dr. William C.
