Hi all, My name is Anna. Could anyone help me to get working apache with php. I got the apache server working with no problems. However when I try to configure PHP as a module in Apache, I cannot start the apache server again. I am getting the following message: “The requested operation has failed!”
I spent a lot of time trying to make different changes but nothing has worked. Below I list the steps that I took. I think they were the most correct attempts of getting working the apache with PHP. PLEASE HELP ME!!! 1)Operating system: Windows XP 2)Service Pack 1 installed 3)Server Version: Apache 2.0.40 a. Apache htdocs folder directory: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs 4)PHP Windows Manual installation from zip binary distribution a.apache_2.0.40-win32-x86-no_ssl.exe 5)PHP 4, 06 Sep 2002, Version 4.2.3 a)PHP installation directory: C:\Program Files\php 4.2.3 6)PHP is run as a server module. 7)System directory: a.C:\WINDOWS\system32 8)The content (dlls and phpsrvlt.jar, pws-php4cgi.reg, pws-php4isapi.reg) of the sapi folder ( “C:\Program Files\php 4.2.3\sapi” ) was copied and passed to the system directory ( “C:\WINDOWS\system32” ) 9)php4ts.dll was copied to “C:\WINDOWS\system32” 10)File: php.ini-dist was copied to “C:\WINDOWS\system32” and renamed to “php.ini”. 11)The following line was commented out: a. ;extension_dir = ./ 12)extension_dir was set as below : a. extension_dir = C:\Program Files\php 4.2.3\extensions 13)doc_root was set as follows: a.doc_root = C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs 14)usr folder was created in: a.C:\Program Files\php 4.2.3\ 15)mibs folder was copied (not moved !) to: a.C:\Program Files\php 4.2.3\usr\mibs 16)Server was stopped and the httpd.conf was modified (lines below were added): a. LoadModule php4_module c:/Program Files/php 4.2.3/sapi/php4apache.dll b. AddModule mod_php4.c c. AddType application/x-httpd-php .php 17)I was also trying to change php4apache.dll to php4apache2.dll, but it did not help to get server running. 18)PHP was configured as a module in Apache. 19)When I add above four lines to httpd.conf file the apache server can be stopped, however I cannot start it again. When those lines are commented out, the apache server works with no problems. Could anyone tell me what I am doing wrong. Yours, Anna. _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
