Hi,

I hope someone can help!

Okay, here's the information I have:

System: Win2k Professional (hahah!)
httpd: Apache 1.3.26
Php: Php4.2.1

The problem? Apache simply refuses to load the php4apache.dll module.

I get the following error message when attempting to load it -


Syntax error on line 194 of c:/apache/apache/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load c:/php/sapi/php4apache.dll into server: (126) The specified
module c
ould not be found:

Note the errors or messages above, and press the <ESC> key to exit.  27...


The following line is in my httpd.conf file.. (cut and paste)

LoadModule php4_module C:/php/sapi/php4apache.dll


My php installation is in c:\php\ .. the file does exist.

I have moved the file to various other places to no avail!!!

(just to prove I'm not being dozy...)

C:\php\sapi>dir
 Volume in drive C is Win2k system
 Volume Serial Number is 2009-AD8C

 Directory of C:\php\sapi

14/07/2002  17:54       <DIR>          .

13/05/2002  12:45                  139 pws-php4isapi.reg
               9 File(s)        149,078 bytes
               2 Dir(s)   2,599,455,232 bytes free

I am clearly quite confused by all this, and have rebooted my computer "just
in case" but nothing seems to work. Full permissions are set to "everyone"
on the directory and the .dll file.

Any help would be appreciated, and thanks in advance!

I have "--with-mysql=shared,/usr". mysql will need both the /usr/include 
and /usr/lib directories so if you give it the directory above them both 
then it will search down for the files it needs. This is on a standard 
RH 7.3 installation so the exact directories may vary in your case.

I see nothing wrong with the php line. I assume php is an apache module 
and the httpd.conf that you are showing is the httpd.conf used by apache 
and that the url you are calling ends in ".php". Are these lines inside 
an <IfModule ...> statement that is not being met? These are the best 
ideas I have.

look for these entries in your httpd.conf file,
if not existed add them according to your paths.

        Action application/x-httpd-php /php/php.exe

        AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
        AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

        ScriptAlias /php/ "C:/php/"

Greetings!

I'm trying to compile PHP 4.2.1 to use it with Apache 2.0.39 and mySQL.

Here's my ./configure

linux:/usr/local/php-4.2.1 # ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php-4.2.1 
--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/php-4.2.1 
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/Apache-2.0.39/bin/apxs --enable-track-vars 
--enable-magic-quotes --enable-debugger

and it configures ok.  But when I run make I get:


/bin/sh /usr/local/php-4.2.1/libtool --silent --mode=compile gcc  -I. 
-I/usr/local/php-4.2.1/sapi/apache2filter -I/usr/local/php-4.2.1/main 
-I/usr/local/php-4.2.1 -I/usr/local/Apache-2.0.39/include 
-I/usr/local/php-4.2.1/Zend -I/usr/local/php-4.2.1/ext/mysql/libmysql 
-I/usr/local/php-4.2.1/ext/xml/expat  -D_REENTRANT 
-I/usr/local/php-4.2.1/TSRM -DTHREAD=1 -g -O2 -pthread -DZTS -prefer-pic 
  -c php_functions.c
php_functions.c:93: parse error
make[3]: *** [php_functions.lo] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/php-4.2.1/sapi/apache2filter'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/php-4.2.1/sapi/apache2filter'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/php-4.2.1/sapi'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
linux:/usr/local/php-4.2.1 #

Any ideas on what's wrong?  Please post to this list and send me an 
email.  I have to head to the Bosnia AO for the next week.

Thanks!

Hi,

I am trying to compile PHP-4.1.2 on a Redhat machine. The configure goes 
through without any errors. (see configure options below)

However when I do a make I get some gd related errors (see the errors 
below).

I searched the php install list and found messages that said similar errors 
might be due to an old version of GD being installed and to look for the 
gd.h file. I did that, and renamed gd.h and tried compiling again. This time 
around the compile complained that there was no gd.h found on the system.

I also found a FAQ from the php.net site that said that "strange compile 
errors" in GD would go away if I ensured that the GD library and PHP were 
linked against the same depending libraries. I am not sure how to go about 
this. (see directory listings of the libjpeg and libpng from my system 
below).

So I am back to square one, and hoping someone could tell me how to fix it. 
:)

Thanks,
-- Santosh

i've installed PHP 4.2.1 as CGI with Apache 2.0.39 running under NT 4.0.

It is working mostly, since i can run this script:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

But i can't get the variables passed in via a URL or POST to be set properly.

When i run this test script, tst.php:

<?php print "$tstvar"; ?>

via http://localhost/tst.php?tstvar=tstvalue

i get this Notice:

Notice: Undefined variable: tstvar in tst.php on line 1

instead of the expected output:

tstvalue

The same thing happens when i try to POST data into a .php script.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,
ted

To last post

Funny enough people know about manuals as they are a link close to the
download link on the devs site. Although if your new to PHP and the links
manuals acn be a little confusing as it mentions more than you need or want
to know. People post on these news groups for help not just to be shunted
off to a manual link. If that was the case why bother running a news
server/group why not just have in big bold letters READ THE MANUAL why cant
you try to be a little helpfull and try and sort his prob.

To Poster

sorry i cant help you as iam new my self and realy have no idea the only
thing i can thnk of is have you got the global settings switched on ?

Thanks Christian.  Now i understand why a PHP script worked
fine on my ISP but not on my local server.  My ISP runs
with register_globals=On (probably due to so much confusion
in their user base about the 4.0 change).  When i get time, i'll
rewrite my scripts to handle the (more secure) register_globals=Off
setting.
