note 105141 added to install.windows.apache2

If you are having problems with php5ts.dll... php5ts.dll is php5.dll but thread safe, hence the 'ts' at the end. Software Details: MySQL 5.5 PHP 5.2.17 VC6 Non-thread safe Apache 2.2.19 Win XP SP3 Here's how I fixed the problem: I've been looking online on how to integrate Apache with PHP right so I come across this code to put in my httpd.conf apache configuration file: LoadModule php5_module "C:/php/php5apache2_2.dll" AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php PhpIniDir "C:/php" I paste it in a voila! it crashes! I know its not news, but I looked and lo and behold its that darn php5ts.dll file! In short: I installed PHP 5.2.17 VC6 Non-Thread Safe. I then installed the PHP 5.2.17 VC6 thread safe so I could copy these files from the thread safe installation into the PHP 5.2.17 VC6 Non-Thread safe installation directory: php5apache2_2.dll php5apache2_2filter.dll Not sure if that last file is needed but I added it anyway. Then I uninstalled the thread safe installation. The Apache service started right up. Had some problems with MySQL too: When I installed it the first time it was fine. Then I uninstalled it and got that "Service could not be started Error: 0" message. To do a complete deletion do this: 1) Use MySQLInstanceconfig.exe to remove the service 2) Use the "Add/Remove programs" to uninstall MySQL 3) Delete the "c:\program files\MySQL directory" 4) Delete the "c:\documents and settings\All Users\Application Data\MySql\" directory 5) Launch regedit.exe from START>RUN and press ctrl+f for the find function and type in MYSQL to find and get rid of anything "MySQL" in there. Press F3 to find repeat instances of "MySQL" I hope this helps you. I spent about 30hrs uninstalling and reinstalling this crap... ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 98.80.233.189 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.apache2.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/105141 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105141/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105141/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105141/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105141/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105141/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105141/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/105141 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/105141 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
