Alright, It worked in my Linux box( thanks a zillion folks, you're awesome ) but not in Windows 2000.
This is my status in W2k. 1. Apache( 2.0.35 ) is up and running. 2. I added the following lines to httpd.conf LoadModule php4_module "F:/Program Files/php-4.2.1-Win32/sapi/php4apache.dll" - (a) LoadModule php4_module "D:/WINNT/system32/php4apache.dll" - (b) DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.htm index.shtml index.php index.php3 index.php4 ScriptAlias /php/ "F:/Program Files/php-4.2.1-Win32/" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .phtml AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps Action application/x-httpd-php "F:/Program Files/php-4.2.1-Win32/php.exe" 3. The problem with (a) or (b). The server comes up ONLY when I comment these lines. i.e. I try both of them ( not at the same time ) but it doesn't work. 4. Question : Do I point to the real location of this dll or the copied one. I copied that dll( along with the other to be safe ) in my WINNT/system32. Is that ok ? what do I miss now ? 5. Also, to associate .php extension, I couldn't find anything as suggested in http://www.umesd.k12.or.us/php/win32install.html#apache. But this is what I did, open windows explorer -> tools -> options -> file types -> < I added a new type and associated the dll to it. Is this required. Thanks.
