#17826 [Com]: PHP 4.2.1 Apache SAPI is not compatible with Apache 2.0.39

ID: 17826 Comment by: kronuz@email.com Reported By: jan@penninkhof.com Status: Closed Bug Type: Apache2 related Operating System: Win32 PHP Version: 4.2.1 Assigned To: edink New Comment: The problem with this message: "Cannot load C:/php4/sapi/php4apache2.dll into server: The specified module could not be found." Should be addressed as: 1. Install PHP/Apache 2. Copy required files from c:\php\dlls\ to c:\winnt\system32\ 3. Grab the latest php snapSnap (http://snaps.php.net/win32/) 4. Copy php4apache2.dll from the snap to c:php\sapi\ 5. Copy php4ts.dll from the snap c:winnt\system32 6. Edit Apache's configuration file and add: LoadModule php4_module c:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml That's it (probably many are just missing the php4ts.dll part) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-11 08:37:20] edink@php.net PHP will work with whatever is current Apache version at the time of its release. Newer versions of Apache2 often break backwards compatibility so php4apache2.dll will not work with them. So either use the version of Apache that is supported by that PHP release, or use (almost) always current snapshot from http://snaps.php.net/win32/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-11 07:01:27] emchojin@hotmail.com Thank you for all the Help Its working perfect with the php4apache2.dll from the Prerelease PHP Version 4.2.4 from http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip But it take alot of time to find this Bugreport. If you would add a little link from the Downloadpage of PHP to this Page, it would help many scared php-newbies like me ;) Thanks for all the help Chojin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-05 10:58:07] me@jonsimpson.co.uk after having some trouble with this myself on both apache 2.0.42 and 2.0.43 and finding this thread, i used just the php4apache2.dll file from http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip with the rest of the files being php 4.2.3 ones, and it works perfectly now. havent seen any bugs so far. hope this helps someone :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-04 00:30:50] jhiltunen@genencor.com Hello. I figured this out. There is no other way than using a 2.0.36 version and apache2filter.dll ! That seems to work perfectly. Only problem is that where from you can find 2.0.36 version of the Apache. Here is location where from I downloaded it: http://apache.kr.net/dist/ I have now PHP 4.2.3, MySQL and Apache 2.0.36 up and running. I have done quite a few tests and I didn't face problems. In httpd.conf you need just following lines: LoadModule php4_module c:/www/bin/php4/experimental/apache2filter.dll DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.html.var index.htm index.phtml index.php3 default.htm AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml .php4 That all you need. Apache2filter.dll might be also problematic to find, but I found it from older PHP distributions (4.2.0, see http://ftp.proventum.net/pub/php/win32/) Greetings, Jari Hiltunen, aka OH4BC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-04 00:02:29] kreynolds@guidecomm.net Sniper, the newest snapshot does not fix the problem here. Apache_2.0.43 doesn't read the php4apache2.dll correctly. Has anyone got this to work yet? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
