[jaswinder_rana]

i installed PHP (4.3.12 from snaps.php.net) and i installed Apache 2.0.53

i tried to run PHP as module and i added following lines in their and it does not work

LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

the error is Cannot load into c:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll server. The specified module could not be found.

i have checked and the file is there. can somebody please tell me what to do. i tried to isntall the same on other computer and its doing the same thing.

can somebody please help me?

BTW, if i run it as CGI Binary, it works great.

copy /php/php4ts.dll to either c:/path/to/apache/bin/php4ts.dll or to c:/windows/system32 , (I prefer sticking the dll in the apache bin)

Do you have a particular requirement for using Apache 2? Personally, on a Windows box (which I guess it for testing your scripts before going live), I wouldn't bother at all with Apache 2 - it's not the most stable thing out there and the PHP4 module is still classed as "experimental" (and for good reason).

I use the latest stable Apache 1.3 release here on WinXP with PHP 4.3.11 and 5.0.4 quite happily and switch between them for development every day.

I have yet to find an issue of note with the apache2 sapi (apache >= 2.0.40) ? + apache2 is simply faster on windows than apache 1.*

thanks for reminding me. i was wondering whyit din't work before. BUT, instead of copying php4ts.dll to apache/bin i copied it to sapi (same folder with php4apache2.dll and it worked wonderfully

what firepages said.

[jaswinder_rana]

well, firepages said to copy it in either Apache/bin or windows/system32
i am just saying i copied it to the same directory where php4apache2.dll was,, which is /php/sapi/, and it worked.

i am not saying he is wrong. i am just saying it worked this way too.
