[Resolved] the specfied module cannot be found

tuf-web_co_uk

hey

i am trying to run php5 b1 on an apache 1.3.27 server

it works fine with php4.3.2 but i keep getting the error

the specfied module cannot be found

when i test my httpd.conf

my httpd line is

LoadModule php4_module c:/webroot/php/sapi/php4apache.dll
AddModule mod_php4.c
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

any suggestions on how to fix this?!

thanks

Try to change

AddModule mod_php4.c

AddModule mod_php5.c

If that doesn't work change also

LoadModule php4_module c:/webroot/php/sapi/php4apache.dll

LoadModule php5_module c:/webroot/php/sapi/php4apache.dll

I read somewhere that the second one has only to be done when using apache 2.x and that you don't need it with apache 1.3.x. I'm using apache 2 so I can't tell it for sure. I think I read it in the user comments in the online php manual.

nope that didnt work 🙁

i tried both, seperately and together, and apache still wouldnt run

could be this a problem with php 5?

thanks Comms

Please post the httpd.conf file

tuf-web_co_uk

here you go

tsinka

Ok,

first make sure that you copied php4ts.dll to the system32 directory (or system on w9x/me).

Then move the LoadModule directive to the end of the global LoadModul block (around line 193) and the AddModule directive to the end of the global AddModule block (around line 240).

Then try to restart apache.

nope i still got the error message 🙁

tuf-web_co_uk

anyone?

tsinka

Hi,

sorry that I didn't reply for such a long time 🙂

Please post the most recent httpd.conf so I can see how it looks now.

What error message do you get exactly, just "the specfied module cannot be found" or anything else ?

Thomas

tsinka

I forgot something:

Copy the contents of dlls to the system (W9x/ME) or system32 (NT/2K/XP/2003) directory and try to restart apache after that.

If you enabled any php extensions in the php.ini (which has to be in windows/winnt) make sure that the extension_path parameter in php.ini is set to the correct path.

hey, no probs about the delay i just used php4 while i waited

i did what you said, moved all the dlls to system32, and there was a tip in antoher thread about an iconv.dll being moved into the sapi folder.

well after i did that, i ran apache and it worked fine but when i ran http://localhost/index.php nothing, but a white page showed up, although the title bar changed.

heres my httpd.conf

thanks for the help 🙂

Hi,

do you see php source code if you view the source code of the page ?

If you see the source try to change AddModule mod_php5.c to AddModule mod_php4.c.

Some people posted that they had to use mod_php4.c instead of mod_php5.c even with php 5 (don't know why).

when i look at the source all i see is

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en-gb">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<title>theutherfish.com</title>

which is in the of my included files called includes/header.php, which is loaded into my main page. this is loaded but i have another 3 includes which are directly after it and they arent being loaded :S

tuf-web_co_uk

oops, i changed my httpd.conf so that the line

AddModule mod_php5.c
was
AddModule mod_php4.c

and i got another error

saying that the module couldnt be loaded via the name mod_php4.c in list of modules

tsinka

Ok,

so that shouldn't be a configuration problem. Please post the/some code if possible.

Hi,

maybe a database connection problem. You use the @ character in a way that would suppress any warnings.

Change

<? 
@ $conn = mysql_pconnect("localhost", "****", "****") 
        or die("Could not connect"); 
@ $db = mysql_select_db("****") or die("could not select database"); 
?>

<? 
$conn = @mysql_pconnect("localhost", "****", "****") 
        or die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error()); 
$db = @mysql_select_db("****") or die("could not select database: ".mysql_error()); 
?>

ok, i did that, i dont know why i had @ there, some newb mistake from about a year ago!

this was the outcome

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_pconnect() in c:\webroot\www\includes\auth\common.php on line 2

This is a weird problem. Du to licensing issues MySQL support has been removed from php 5.0.0 Beta 1. php 5.0.0 Beta 2 seems to include MySQL support, you can download it from

snaps.php.net

MySQL switched to GPL license which conflicted with the PHP license. MySQL and the PHP people are working on a solution.

Unbelievable ...

tuf-web_co_uk

hey again!

i downloaded php5b2 and i still get the error message
i checked to see if i had installed it properly using phpinfo(); and it says my current version is

PHP Version 5.0.0b2-dev

so i guess i installed it properly, so why is it doing this still?!
