Auto-start service doesn't auto-start

I'm running a copy of Apache 1.3.34 as a service on my dev machine
(W2K4). I have it ticked for auto-start, but lately it fails to start
up, and it sometimes requires 2 tries even to start by hand. The o/s
claims that there's no error message associated with the failure. I've
tried re-installing (and upgrading from .27 to .34) Apache, but that
hasn't helped.

Any insights gratefully received.
 
Check Event Viewer for error details.

Thanks, Dave. Annoyingly, though, there's nothing in the log. The
latest autostart failure was this morning, but the latest log entry
was last night.
 
You'll probably need to get in touch with the developer.

I believe Apache has its own logs. Check in the folder where you installed
Apache. I have a folder called Logs on mine which contains a file called
"error.log", but I am running Apache2.
