#18129 [Csd]: Installation PHP 4.2.X with Apache 2.0.x

ID: 18129 Updated by: alindeman@php.net Reported By: erik at antwerpes dot de Status: Closed Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Win32 PHP Version: 4.3.0-dev New Comment: In future, don't ask support questions here -- http://php.net/support Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-30 16:30:34] mike at yahoo dot com Ok, I created a text file in my htdocs <dir> to see if Apache was recognizing .php files. Called it phptest.php and inserted only the following... <? phpinfo(); ?> This is what is specified on a page I used as my instruction set for installing PHP to integrate with Apache. Here it is... http://www.zdnet.com.au/builder/architect/sdi/story/0,2000035062,20273988,00.htm No dice. Did not work. Next I copied the php4ts.dll file to the Apache/bin directory. Still no go. Finally added the line "AddModule mod_php4.c" to the AddModule section of the Apache http.conf file. Bingo! I typed in the url http://<MyDnsName>/phptest.php and got it to bring up the page. Seems like it is running now. Good luck! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-30 15:39:26] mike at yahoo dot com I read every single post on this board and tried every suggestion and several desperate measures of my own. Even tried the registry trick that was suggested on one of the posts by a fellow XP user. No cigar. None of the suggestions aided me in resolving the issue that leads to the error we are all trying to eliminate; "Cannot load c:\php\sapi\php4apache2.dll into server". I am running Windows XP, Apache 2.0.43 and Php 4.3.0. Now, suppossedly php4apache.dll should NOT work with Apache 2.x. That is what php4apache2.dll was written for. Guess what, I tried it and it worked for me. Is it working as it should? That is another story. I guess I'll find out soon enough. So, bottom line...do what the guy in the [October 23rd 2002 8:52 pm] post says if you have XP, and then try specifying the folowing in the Apache conf file... LoadModule php4_module x:\php\sapi\php4apache.dll AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .phtml May or may not work for you. To say this software is poorly documented and experimental is an understatement!
