Problems with install

Hello,

I have problems with install of ms4w 3.0 on Windows server 2003 SP2. Following has been published on mapserver-users list. Problem confimed by Jukka Rahkonen as well.

Current position:

On my Windows server 2003, SP2, MS4W 3.0 simply does not install.

I make a new download of the  zipfile and expand it as C:/ms4w … I copy msvcr90.dll from cgi-bin to a directory in the “path”. Still, I get “The system cannot execute the specified program”.

Using dependency walker on httpd.exe, I get errors on loading IESHIMS.DLL and WER.DLL which both are probably not required (delay-load). And msvcr90 was fixed with above action. Still, this program says

Error: The Side-by-Side configuration information for "c:\ms4w\apache\bin\HTTPD.EXE" contains errors. This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem (14001).

Error: The Side-by-Side configuration information for "c:\ms4w\apache\bin\LIBHTTPD.DLL" contains errors. This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem (14001).

Error: The Side-by-Side configuration information for "c:\ms4w\apache\bin\LIBAPRUTIL-1.DLL" contains errors. This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem (14001).

Error: The Side-by-Side configuration information for "c:\ms4w\apache\bin\LIBAPRICONV-1.DLL" contains errors. This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem (14001).

Error: The Side-by-Side configuration information for "c:\ms4w\apache\bin\LIBAPR-1.DLL" contains errors. This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem (14001).

Warning: At least one delay-load dependency module was not found.

I’ve tried with the standard looks of the configuration from the download, and know nothing about any “application configuration” that could be wrong.

The download works well on my Windows XP-system, and the old ms4w installed using the windows installer works well on this Windows 2003 server.

Please help

Struggling on my own then.

I’ve found the instructions, to change paths for the new location (which BTW is under ‘Program files’ meaning there is space in the path), and to change the port for Apache server, in particular section H in the readme-install. There is a warning against space in the path; however, nothing about caused problems, or what to do when there is a space in the path. So I try anyway.

The problem is, “httpd.exe” can’t execute

“The system cannot execute the specified program.”

I guess there is a missing DLL or something on my Windows XP system.

When I compare with the working previous release, httpd is now smaller than before. I tried using the old httpd in the new environment, but it got problems, probably with wrong configuration.

Any hints? Are there required DLLs? Could I simply try running the old httpd with it’s old configuration?

Hi all,

We would like to upgrade our MapServer which was installed using setup.exe installer installation. Unfortunately there is no such for 5.4.2, and we do want to keep the directory structure, port settings

Etc as we have from our current install. Is there a pointer to some “howto”?
