Apache :: Apache / PHP not working under Win XP

I got Apache 2.0.54 and php 5.0.44

I have it set up on a Win XP Home machine - what I do is have a php program where I fill in a form and it builds a php web page for me.

Got a new machine - XP P SP3, IE 8. I can not get it to work as before.

I would go to an html form, enter the data and hit the submit button and a php program I wrote would build the page and then take me back to the html form and I can continue to enter data.

IE asks me if I want to download a file and never builds the file. I tried it with mozilla and it did not work either.

I fooled around with my php ini and browser settings and nothing.

(I am the only one that uses this program on my local machine)

I am thinking about installing the most current versions of Apache and PHP.

It is like the php programs are not executing.

Hi,
why do you such old software? As there is Apache 2.2.14 and PHP 5.3?

But back to your problem:

in httpd.conf you need to add this lines.

Thank you for your help - that worked.

I must not have had got the correct config files transfered between the two machines.

What woud be the best way to perform an upgrade on Apache and PHP ?

There is an artical about that http://archives.justmyspace.org/?article=A000001

If that path are the same maybe you can also add the config folder to that script.
