>Environment:
NT 4.0, service pack 2
>Description:
When installed as a service, Apache starts OK with a defelt httpd.conf.  I added a section for a virtual host , using just the DocumentRoot and cluase (also tried with and without the ServerName clause, and with/without the NameVirtualHost clause.  Any combination caused Apache to not start (using either "net start apache" or from ControlPanel/Service).

When run as an application, everything work OK.

Nothing in error.log indicating a problem.  I don't see anything that looks like a core file (or whatever the NT equiv is).
>How-To-Repeat:
My section of http.conf for redirecting to a web follows:

NameVirtualHost 24.1.86.37

<VirtualHost www.natpulse.com>
#ServerAdmin guys@home.net
#ServerName www.natpulse.com
DocumentRoot "c:/FrontPage Webs/Content/natpulse"
#ErrorLog logs/natpulse-error.log
#TransferLog logs/natpulse-access.log
</VirtualHost>

No.
