[ms4w-users] Re: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] ms4w-installation: win98se-shutdown problem

[Bart van den Eijnden]

The following is said on a WAMP page:

Apache
Windows 95/98 users should use Apache 1.3.31. All other Windows users  
should be fine with Apache 2.0.49.

http://www.devx.com/opensource/Article/21598

So you are probably best of installing Apache 1.3.31 ..... but then you  
need to reconfigure the php support among other things.

Best regards,
Bart
