Install Apache+MySql automatically as service?

[matthias-web]

Hi!

I want to install XAMPP 1.7.7. (ZIP version) on Windows 8.1 as service.
This works well using the Control Panel selecting Svc for Apache and MySql.

Is there a way to automatise this during installation? E.g. to add certain commands in the "xampp_setup.bat"?
The description on the XAMPP Win FAQ (https://www.apachefriends.org/faq_windows.html) - "How can I install a server as a service?" with using
\xampp\apache\apache_installservice.bat
\xampp\mysql\mysql_installservice.bat
seems not to work (anymore).

Many thanks for kind cooperation!

With best regards,
Matthias
