I downloaded and installed apache_2.2.9 on WinXP and It worked fine.Then I downloaded php-5.2.6-Win32.zip and extracted it's contents to c:\php folder. I renamed the php.ini-dist to php.ini and saved it in the directory WINDOWS But left the php.ini-dist at php folder, copied php5ts.dll into c:\windows\system32 But I left the original at the php folder Went to httpd.conf file and added the following lines AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps Up to this point everything worked fine.I restated apache several times no error messages were displayed Then added the line LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/sapi/php5apache2.dll" After this line was added when apache was stopped and restarted the message "operation failed" was displayed Any help will be grateful Thanks Varuna -- Varuna Seneviratna No 514 Udumulla Road Battaramulla Sri Lanka Tel : 011-2888620 Mobile:0715617141
