Did you stop and restart Apache?
Are the page  types properly added to httpd.conf? (See the instructions, 
near the end.)
Did you move and rename the .ini file, as in the instructions?

If all those are OK, create this simple file in your web root, callinf it 
phpinfo.php:
<?
phpinfo();
?>

and call it from your browser. If everything is running properly, you will 
get a couple of attractively formatted screenfuls of information about your 
installation.

To chekc apache's configuration, go to the /bin directory where apache is 
intstalled and type either:
./apachectl --help
or
./hhtpd --help

And you will bet the switches to use for checking status, starting, 
stopping, et.c

This should be enough to get you going, and hope it helps.

PS Did I read the version of Apache correctly? 1.2?  If so, go get the 
latest 1.3, 1.2 is really old. /mt
