Fastcgi, Apache2 and Windows XP

Hi,

I have been trying to get a windows system up and running with apache2 
and fastcgi and I have been having some trouble.

I have setup a fully patched Windows XP system and hace installed the 
following:
 >    apache_2.0.54-win32-x86-no_ssl.msi
 >    mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0404142202.tar.gz (unpacked and installed into 
the apache modules directory)

Then added the following lines to httpd.conf:

 >    LoadModule fastcgi_module modules\mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0404142202-AP2.dll
 >   
 >    # Create a directory for the scripts
 >    ScriptAlias /fcgi-bin "C:/Program Files/Apache 
Group/Apache2/htdocs/fcgi-bin"
 >    AddHandler fastcgi-script fcg fcgi fpl exe
 >   
 >    <Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/fcgi-bin">
 >        AllowOverride None
 >        Options ExecCGI   
 >        SetHandler fastcgi-script
 >        Options None
 >        Order allow,deny
 >        Allow from all
 >    </Directory>

Appache then starts up fine and indicates that the fastcgi module has 
been installed fine.

I then installed the default, (plus all devel group) cygwin setup.
I then added the cygwin bin directory to the windows path.

I then downloaded:
 >    fcgi-2.4.0.tar.gz

I unpacked this within the cygwin environment, entered the fcgi-2.4.0 
directory and then ran:

 >    ./configure
 >    make

I then copied the echo.exe file from the examples directory and pasted 
it into my apache fcgi-bin directory.
I then opened a browser and tried to open the page:
 >    http://localhost/fcgi-bin/echo.exe

The browser tried for a few seconds then returned an "Internal Server Error"
Below is an extract from the apache error.log

I am hoping to get a particular image server, 
(http://iipimage.sourceforge.net/), up and running on a windows machine, 
I have it running well on a linux machine.

The echo.exe runs fine in a windows command window and returns a pile of 
system info.

I am hoping I have just missed some important step to get the system 
working properly, can any of you suggest what I should try next ?

Thanks for your time.
