You can easily create the service on the cli by running as administrator and going to the HTTPD.exe location and running: httpd.exe -k install. You may want to name it using the -n flag. That makes it easier to modify and control from the cli. This will also create the service required in windows.
Hopefully that works; I've never installed apache from an msi, but it seems to me that it probably lacked the privilege to generate the new service during installation.

by running sc query for 'apache 2.2', I got the message "[sc] EnumQueryServicesStatus: OpenService FAILED 1060:
The specified service does not exist as an installed service"
What is the 'cli'? How do I run it as an administrator and then go the httpd.exe location? Should I just uninstall and then re-install apache? I need apache so I can use php
