Installed Apache Webservices but will not start, no message, no pop-up.
IIS not at this time part of WinXPe component list. Can anyone comment
on which components are necessary for Apache Webservices to function
with WinXPe? Thanks.
 
Have you checked out the Apache Component on
www.xpefiles.com ?

No, I have not, and thanks very much for the reference. I have recently
discovered that Apache web services is complaining about the absence of
device NUL under my particular build of WinXPe. That is apparently why
the web services server will not start. To test, "copy license.txt nul"
fails with "file not found". But "copy license.txt foo" copies to file
"foo" just fine. Any way to convince web services server to use
something other than NUL?
 
Hi Frank

Include the Null Device Driver into your build.

Software -> System -> Other -> Null Device Driver

Regrettably, my Software -> System -> Other tree does not contain "Null
Device Driver", which probably explains why a filter search for
NULL.SYS fails, as does any kind of search for LEGACY_NULL. My Other
tree has 1394 Kernel Debugger Support, Files and Settings Transfer
Wizard, five Internet games, Schedule Service Command Line Utility and
Search Tools. No Null Device Driver. My WinXPe distribution is SP1.
What might explain this strange absence? Thanks for your time.
 
mmhhh... in my Sp2 it's visible (1000) and ready to use...
but I found some older posts, that you have to lower
your visibility factor in Target Designer.

-> Menu Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Minimum Visibility: 100

Wow. Crazy. Indeed, with "visibility" of 100, "Null Device Driver"
suddenly appears. Why Microsoft would market a product that fails a
search because the default "visibility" was "too high" is a mystery to
me. Thanks so much.
