note 103704 added to install.windows.apache2

I just spent 5 hours repeatedly trying, usuccessfully, to get Apache to parse php files instead of sending them to the browser. I am setting up a Win 7 Pro box, and went through the configuration several times, as well as trying other configuration directives I found elsewhere by searching. Nothing worked. I was tearing my hair out and ready to cry. I have set this up numerous times on XP with no problem. But on Win 7 Pro it wasn't happening. Eventually I found this code, which worked perfectly (after taking out directives from httpd.conf that weren't working, of course) LoadFile "C:/php/php5ts.dll" LoadModule php5_module "C:/php/php5apache2.dll" <IfModule php5_module> #PHPIniDir "C:/Windows" #PHPIniDir "C:/Winnt" <Location /> AddType text/html .php .phps AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps </Location> </IfModule> If you've been having the same problem, try this. You're welcome. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 173.170.157.34 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.apache2.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/103704 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103704/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103704/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103704/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103704/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103704/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103704/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103704 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/103704 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
