Re: php windows crashes with apache

Ok, a couple of points, interspersed between you code...

Try the following three lines: ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/programme/php/" Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php First, you should use the script alias for ease of writing (though it's not completely necessary). Second, the "Action" directive should come BEFORE the AddType directive, or Apache won't know what to do with the specific type you are adding. > <Directory "C:/Programme/Apache Group/Apache/htdocs"> > Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI > AllowOverride None > Order allow,deny > Allow from all > </Directory> > ------------------> > I just added 'ExecCGI' Actually, the ExecCGI directive isn't necessary for PHP scripts to run... the abilitity for .PHP files to be interpretted and run is handled directly by the AddType and Action statements referenced earlier. Perhaps try removing the ExecCGI directive and see what happens (though I'd leave it in, as it shouldn't hurt PHP either - more a matter of taste than of functionality as far as PHP is concerned). > in the php.ini I added the following document root: > <------------------ > doc_root = "C:\Programme\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs" > ------------------> As I recommend to anybody... use front-slashes instead of back-slashes in your php.ini. The system won't care (as the PHP binaries know to translate these back to backslashes for system access) and some extensions and Apache in particular, really want to see front-slashes. Try this: doc_root = "c:/programme/apache group/apache/htdocs" What happens when you try all that (particularly reversing your AddType and Action statements)? -- Andy Hoffman Web Developer Bristol-Myers Squibb email: andy.hoffman@bms.com
