Help me!

MBK

I am running PHP 4.2.2 with Apache 2.0.40 on a WinME (I know) machine.

Apache runs fine on its own, when I try and install PHP and edit the php.ini and the httpd.ini as all the tutorials say I get the error message
"Cannot load %path%/php4apache2.dll into server: A device attached to the system is not functioning!

Can someone help me please!:rolleyes:

http.ini? shouldnt that be httpd.conf?

MBK

Oops! Yeah it should be, I have edited the httpd.conf file, not the .ini
Any ideas?

Did you restart apache? Is the file actually in the right location?

Might seem a silly idea, but it might be the key

MBK

I have checked it all, the files are all in the right places all the changes I have made have been saved - and been to the correct files. I am still getting the error message, rebooted my machine several times but am getting no joy!
Any more ideas?

maybe try using a relative path instead of an absolute path when pointing to the .dll .... i had this problem just last nite. i put in c:\program files\php\sapi\php4apache2.dll and it didn't work

so i changed the path to ../../php/sapi/php4apache2.dll and it works fine now

the ../ means up one directory

MBK

Still no luck!

Gettin the error message again "A device attached to the system is not functioning"

Message appears when trying to start Apache.

Help!
