Using Apache HTTP Server on Microsoft Windows

Available Languages:  en  |  fr  |  ko 

This document explains how to install, configure and run Apache 2.4 under Microsoft Windows. If you have questions after reviewing the documentation (and any event and error logs), you should consult the peer-supported users' mailing list.

This document assumes that you are installing a binary distribution of Apache. If you want to compile Apache yourself (possibly to help with development or tracking down bugs), see Compiling Apache for Microsoft Windows.

Operating System Requirements

The primary Windows platform for running Apache 2.4 is Windows 2000 or later. Always obtain and install the current service pack to avoid operating system bugs.

Apache HTTP Server versions later than 2.2 will not run on any operating system earlier than Windows 2000.
