Mod_php for Win2kPro on Apache 2.0.35
Where do I get mod_php from and the instructions on how to implement it into
apache... Because your right, I WOULD rather have mod_php so that it would
stay active within apache rather than opening up a new process EVERY time
php is accessed on the server... That will quickly bog down my box... Can
you assist me with this...
Thanks,

I'm not very experienced here, but i'll try to help you through your
problems, as I caused them ;-)

How did you restart the server, and where did this error message pop up, and
do you run Apache as a service?
Perhaps you said so in an earlier letter, but which os/version are you doing
this on?
And, does it start and work if you only uncomment the LoadModule-directive?
There are both a "php4apache.dll" and a "php4apache2.dll". You are sure
you're using the latter?
You must also use forward slashes / in all path names in httpd.conf.

Pretty sure; it works for me, and you're encouraged to do so in the manual.
For the .dll, modules can be either compiled in, loadable modules (.so) or
dlls. The PHP extension is in form of a dll.

We shall try to sort this out. If it don't magically start to function, do
send/attache your httpd.conf and php.ini (you can cut out irrelevant stuff
if you want) and will look at them to see if I have missed to point out
something obvious. The problem here is that I really don't know what one
needs to do to get this working. I was lucky, reading some posts in this
forum about Win32+Apache2+PHP4 and the install notes, and it just worked the
first time, but hopefully we reach that point for you too :-)

Robert Andersson

I got this PHP zip package, and extracted all files to c:\php_4.2.1 Then I
copied php4ts.dll and php.ini to the c:\winnt\system32\ folder. Then I
edited the php.ini file so that paths were correct... I then in the
httpd.conf file for apache, inserted the three lines you said to insert,
which were:
> LoadModule php4_module "G:/usr/local/php4/sapi/php4apache2.dll"
> AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
> AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
I added the two ADDTYPE entries under the one AddType application directive
that comes in httpd.conf by default. I assume this is where I should have
put them rather than beneath the actual LoadModule statement, as other
LoadModule statements were below. And I then saved and restarted the web
server, and it would not start... The error message was: The requested
operation has failed. My logs offered no help at all... So something is
wrong... Are you sure I am suppose to use the quotes around the drive and
path for the module, and are you sure the .dll will work rather than the
.so, which apache mainly uses for modules... I appologize if I have
forgotten to do something, but in following your steps, I was unable to get
it to work properly...

Lets see...
1. First download the binaries from here: http://www.php.net/downloads.php
Select the first one ("PHP 4.2.1 zip package") which includes the extension.
2. Unpack the archive to a good place. You won't install (copy) this, so
it'll be where you put it now forever :-)
I put mine besides apache at G:/usr/local/php4/ (being somewhat unix
compatible)
3. You should then open up install.txt (for example:
G:/usr/local/php4/install.txt), and goto the section: "Windows Manual
install from zip binary distribution". Read the stuff so you're in on it,
but I comment some important steps.
- I'm not sure this is necessary, but you should copy the php4ts.dll to
%SYSTEMROOT%\system32 (if you're on NT)
- Copy the php.ini-dist to %SYSTEMROOT% and remove the '-dist'-part.
- Just follow the instructions when configuring the php.ini-file. You don't
need to change much but paths etc.
4. Skip down to the section "Web server configuration", and "Installing PHP
on Windows with Apache 1.3.x" (I know the version, but most stuff will work
anyway).
- Instead of modifying httpd.conf the way they say, add these lines:
LoadModule php4_module "G:/usr/local/php4/sapi/php4apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
You should, of course, change the path to the dll to what you have. A tip is
to also add index.php etc. to the DirectoryIndex directiv
5. I hope i remembered most steps. Hopefully you restart the server and
everything works great. Try searching the archives here, as there were some
discussions about php4+Apache2 a while ago. Let me know if you run into a
rock.
