[users@httpd] PHP directives preventing web server from starting WAS: [users@httpd] VirtualHost directive not working after XP SP2 install

[Mark Kalmus <mk...@mackenzie-denham.com>]

I was able to get the 127.x.x.x IP addresses to display; however, none of the server-side include scripts work.

After following my install instructions for configuring the httpd.conf file to work with PHP4, the webserver would not start.

I double-checked the httpd.conf file and by commenting out the following lines I could get the webserver to start.


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

PHPIniDir "C:/php/php.ini"

I ran at a command line the php -i command and no errors were returned.  But the phpinfo() function does not work when called from a web page.

Where can I find instructions on how to set up the httpd.conf file to work with PHP4?

Thanks,

M Kalmus

It's that hotfix you must have.

Then, if it works and listen 80 doesn't behave, I suspect that MS is still treating each loopback IP as disassociated from 'all' 0.0.0.0.

So try this instead

listen 127.0.0.1:80
listen 127.0.0.2:80
...
listen 127.0.0.5:80

Oh, and take a look at using windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts on the machine she uses to set up

127.0.0.1	www.myshop.local www.thatshop.local

and then use named hosts to map www.myshop.local etc each to their own vhost.
It's alot easier than by-ip, and you can even use a real (local) ip of the box apache is running on (listening to that port) and copy around these lines to the other boxes, so she can compare ie to firefox etc etc.
