Windows / Apache / PHP

I am trying to install php module on my Win2K apache web server.

I am running Apache 2.0.4 and have downloaded the binary for php 4.2.3.

My documentation says to add the following to the httpd file

LoadModule php4_module c:/PHP/experimental/apache2filter.dll

However the dir experimental and the file apache2filter.dll both don't exist.

I have tried changing the line to c:/php/sapi/apache2.dll but still the service fails.

Any ideas?

try:

c:/PHP/sapi/php4apache2.dll

or wherever your php3apache2.dll is....

funnily enough that was the last one I tried, still no joy.
Any other ideas?

What exactly is happening?

I never did get PHP running as a module with apache 2.x and went back to last version of apache 1.x and it was almost a no brainer. I don't think that php is totally stable on the lastest apache yet, are you trying to run it as a module or compile it into the apache binary?

Yes I installing apache2 and I cant install php4. Im hopping that the apache2filter.dll will help but I have no idea where to get it. Any ideas??

AFAIK there are a quite a few complaints on this issue. Please download the latest snapshot of PHP and use the php4apache2.dll from that. That seems to solve the problem in most cases.

I downloaded MySql, PHP, and Apache 2.3. Encountered problems with loading the OHO Module for apache. The solution that worked for me was to add a path to where PHP was installed ( inmy case DHP4) and to use php4apache2.dll not php4apache.dll as suggested by thge article at http://www.webmasterbase.com/article/525/30)

Hope this help save time for some one.
