How to install PHP4.0.2 as Apache module on Win98

[Anon]

Hi everybody,

I have been using PHP4 as apache module on Linux since a long time but due to certain problems I am left with a single Win98 system.

I would like to know how can I configure PHP4.0.2 as an Apache module on Windows 98.

I have already started PHP as CGI, but I am very much in need of PHP as apache module.

Thanks in advance.

Bhavin,

Check out http://www.thickbook.com/extra/php_apachephp4_win.phtml

This will tell you how to configure CGI (which you said you already know
how to do).

Unless you want to build the binaries from the source yourself (?), there is a reference/link on the above page to http://www.php4win.de/. This page contains a complete set of Windows binaries including the php4apache.dll. This is the DLL you'll need to add to your httpd.conf as follows:

LoadModule php4_module /php4/php4apache.dll

Instead of the normal CGI directive:

Action application/x-httpd-php /php4/php.exe

Test it out with <?phpinfo()?> and you should see that the output lists the SAPI as Apache instead of CGI.
