Yup.  It's using the wrong path.  And it doesn't work that
way apparently without the option not to fork.

I grubbed a bit in the apache documentation and found that the
native Windows version has two command line options `-n' and
`-k' to install, stop and restart apache as service.

Wouldn't it make sense to use that part of the source code for
the Cygwin apache, too?  It must be similar to the service stuff
in inetd.

Anyway, I have no preferences.  You can use your own option for
starting with cygrunsrv or the native Windows options, whatever
is less work.

Another question:  Are you planning to support mod_ssl in future
as well?  I'm sure it would be most appriciated.  If I'm not
completely off track, it's needed to allow https connections to
apache, right?
