Older versions of Apache couldn''t handle content-lengths > 2GB
(obviously using a signed 32bit integer, I remember apache reporting
negative content lengths and crazy stuff like that).
You should probably determine whether your version is one of the
affected ones and if so upgrade to a newer version ?

From a shell on the server, type httpd -v and press return.

Compare the results of the command

echo PATH

on both terminals.

Whenever you issue a command in a shell without using an absolute  
(root-relative) path to that command, like say, http instead of /usr/ 
local/bin/httpd, you are asking the shell to fill in the missing bits  
for you. The way that works is the shell takes the path, one segment  
at a time (segments are separated by a colon in Unix, not sure if  
Windows respects that precedent), and prepends each segment before  
your command and sees if anything happens. If nothing does, it tries  
the next segment in the path until something works or it runs out of  
segments.

I suspect that your PATH environment variable is either empty or very  
short in the latter terminal, so this process is ending in failure.

Well, I thought that was explained earlier. You need to figure out  
what the server is running, and see if that is your problem. Sounds  
likely to me, but I''m not there, and I''ve never tried to run
Apache on
a Windows computer before. You might want to try a cheap and cheerful  
Unix hosting account somewhere as a development server, and see if you  
can get your application to work there.
