i have been messing with apache-2.0.44 and php-4.2.3 for a couple of days now, and i can't get the thing to actually work. i installed both, and when i make all the changes required it tells me that it needs something different, but i don't have a clue what...
i have tested the server, and as long as i don't make any changes to the httpd.config file it works like a charm. i add the lines that php requires me to add, and then the sh*t starts. when i add
LoadModule php4_module c:/php-4.2.3/sapi/php4apache2.dll
(which is the correct path for it) i get the announcement that the restart failed.
after doing a "test coniguration" thing it tells me the following:
apache.exe
module "c:/php4built/snap/sapi/apache2filter/sapi_apache2.c"
is not compatible with this version of apache.
(found 20020628, need 20020903)
please contact the vendor for the correct version.
also this part
"c:/php4built/snap/sapi/apache2filter/sapi_apache2.c"
is nowhere to be found on my puter... but it apparently finds what it needs... just the wrong version of it.
(the forward slashes are actually backslashes, but they refuse to post here so i replaced them)
i have scanned the websites of apache and php.net as well as this one, but i can't find anything that even remotely resembles this problem.
is there anyone that has a clue what is going on, and what i can do to solve it? while keeping in mind that i am a complete newby at this? i have installed the whole thing about 10 times now from two different installers and versions (i downloaded the latest this morhing and tried again) and am close to giving up on this...
some sysinfo: i run on w2k. all sp's are installed. since it has no access to the web or email there are no firewalls or virusscanners on it. it is hooked up on my personal network, and nothing else.
