Greetings, All. I've just downloaded an upgrade for my existing, but long time unused, PHP 5.3 suite on Windows XP, but it just doesn't start, stating something along the lines of "it's not a win32 executable". While it clearly is... [C:\...\php-5.5.14-Win32-VC11-x86]$ file ./php.exe ./php.exe: PE32 executable (console) Intel 80386, for MS Windows [C:\...\php-5.5.14-Win32-VC11-x86]$ cygcheck ./php.exe C:\...\php-5.5.14-Win32-VC11-x86\php.exe C:\...\php-5.5.14-Win32-VC11-x86\php5ts.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\Secur32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\WS2_32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcrt.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\WS2HELP.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\ODBC32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\COMCTL32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\comdlg32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHELL32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHLWAPI.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\ole32.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\DNSAPI.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\MSVCR110.dll [C:\...\php-5.5.14-Win32-VC11-x86]$ php.exe -i 4NT: (Sys) C:\...\php-5.5.14-Win32-VC11-x86\php.exe не является приложением Win32. "C:\...\php-5.5.14-Win32-VC11-x86\php.exe" (And yes, as you can see, the MSVC11 runtime is installed.) So, the question is... what I'm doing wrong? -- Sincerely Yours, Andrey Repin <anrdaemon@freemail.ru>
