note 53807 added to install.windows

Apache 2.0 + PHP 5.0.4 installation always bit me on the behind when I tried to enable extensions like mhash and mcrypt. The gotcha is the PHP 5 INSTALL file gets you to add a configuration directive to Apache like: # For PHP 5 do something like this: LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2.dll" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php # configure the path to php.ini PHPIniDir "C:/php" If c:\php isn't in your PATH, then you have issues, seemingly at random - it'll work on one machine but not the other and is very frustrating. What you really want, is the trailing slash, so that Apache actually knows it's a directory, rather than a file. PHPIniDir "C:/php/" Hey presto, fixed! ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+53807 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+53807&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+53807&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+53807&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+53807&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+53807&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+53807&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
