[RESOLVED] PHP4 + Apache2.2

obrienkev

Hi all,

I am having trouble getting php4.4 to work with apache2.2

I have a php test page but the browser just hangs when loading.

Here are the changes I made...

HTTPd.conf

ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"

PHP:

copied php4apache.dll from c:\PHP\sapi to c:\php

copied contents of c:\php\dlls to windows\system32

php.ini
extension_dir = c:/php/extensions
doc_root = "c:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/htdocs"

Thanks,

Kevin.

I'm not sure php4 will work with Apache 2.2 I know for a fact that Apache 2.2 has issues with any PHP version and requires a new DLL for use. Try downgrading Apache to 2.0.59. That should work.

I don't know about win32, but I run Apache 2.2 with PHP 4.3.11 as well as 5.1.2 and 5.2.0RC4, all of them work perfectly (On Linux)

Right, but Linux doesn't have the crutch of DLL files to fall upon for linking between Apache and PHP. I guess if you really wanted PHP4 and Apache 2.2 you could run PHP in cgi mode, but that's just a guess.

That's also not to mention that Linux is the dev platform of PHP and Apache, so it's not surprising that the newest stuff works flawlessly under Linux and not in Windows.

Hi guys,

I reinstalled apache as version 2.0.59

However, I cannot get PHP4.4 working with it.

Below are the changes I made...

httpd file...
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll"

PHP:

1/ copied php.ini into c:\windows

2/ copied php4ts.dll into c:\windows\system32

Any ideas??

Not really sure..... have you tried specifying the PHPIniDir in the httpd.conf file?

Edit
Also, try adding your PHP path to the windows Environment variables path. See if that helps you out.

well I restarted apache from Services in the Control Panel rather than from the Apache Control and it works now.

thanks for the help.
