Greetings Clacy,
 Mind you, the experience I share here is *primarily* from *BSD.
However, I have a great deal of experience with Win(whatever) and
Linux as well. I just blew away my "potato" install. So I can't
look at it for reference. That said, let's go. Read further down...

Had to change mine as well after the PHP install (same message). :-\

The (working) line in my httpd.conf file looks like this:
LoadModule php4_module        libexec/apache/libphp4.so
Literal path translation:
/usr/local/libexec/apache

Similar to yours? I should also note that *relative* paths used during
the build process can cause confusion in the resulting Libs and
executables - apache, php and libphp4.so. Those paths are hard coded
into those files. Meaning ../../mysql or whatever, can throw off the
path once these files are in place. I know that I read this somewhere
at the php.net site. But can't remember exactly where. I think if you
just change the line in your httpd.conf file to the same as mine, you
should be in luck. :-)
Hope some of this might help and best of luck,
 Chris
