Ok, so I downloaded and installed Apache 2.0x from Apache.org because I'm too stupid with windows to install the current version from a binary. Once installed the service worked fine. I then installed php5 and now cannot get apache restarted.
There is one error in the error log saying that the php5apache2_2.dll module could not be found. Yet... the .dll is exactly where it should be according to http.conf. Just to be sure I uninstalled and re-installed php. Again, the Load in http.conf is pointed to the right place. Now, when I try to restart apache it still fails, but it is no longer writing to the log. I must have tried fifty restarts and the only error that is logged is the first one.
I am using Vista, for what that's worth, and the exact error message is...
The requested operation has failed!
What am I doing wrong? |

Using the wrong php dll file for the version of Apache you are running.
php5apache2_2.dll -> Apache 2.2.x
php5apache2.dll -> Apache 2.0.x
php5apache.dll -> Apache 1.3.x |

| Wow. Thank you. I'm not saying that I'm an expert or anything, but I swear I'm not THIS stupid. I'm just trying to set this up as I do a few million other things and only get about 5 minutes at a shot with it. I actually realized that this was the problem when I was out for a run earlier. Now I just have to decide if I want to scrub 2.0 and take yet another shot at 2.2 from the binary, or just finish the install here. I still have to get MySql into the mix and then start on getting Tomcat and Apache to play together. |

I just wanted to take a moment to post another thank you in here for your help. I finally got to a point where I could spend some time with this and I was able to download the 2.2 binary, install it, and install the current version of php. All is working well. So, seriously, thank you for taking the time to answer my stupid questions that I would probably have not needed to ask if I had taken the time to do this properly.
Now, if I can only get this mod_jk to work.... lol |
