Just to let you know, we've simplified the Moodle for Windows packages slightly (MDL-14721) by:

1) Putting all the server code in a directory called "server".
2) Including two little applications (with nice icons) at the top level called "Start Moodle" and "Stop Moodle".

A README.txt spells things out if necessary.

Please let us know about any problems with these packages on MDL-14721 as well as suggestions for further improvements.

This must also have been done recently to the Mac4Moodle package, totally cool and thanks.

Hi

I'm a complete newbie at setting up webservers, so forgive me if my question seems trivial, but when I run "Start Moodle.exe", I get an error that "make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80"

I am running Windows Server 2003 SE R2 inside a VMware Fusion virtual machine.  I guess this might have something to do with my network settings?  How should they be configured for the install to work?

Have a look and see if Internet Information Server is installed and stared. If it is so, then there is a conflict between both IIS and Apache, and you'll need to configure one of them to use a different port.

Saludos. Iñaki.

That was precisely the problem. Thanks Iñaki!
