Server 2008 is fine to run PHP.

Be sure you use the TS version of PHP.

And use only:

LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll"
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php

# configure the path to php.ini
PHPIniDir "C:/php"

Note: Remember to substitute the c:/php for your actual path to PHP in the above example.

Can you please look at the fallowing Data:

Local Server --> IM Server --> DMZ Server

Softwares installed in IM Server
1.MySql

Softwares installed in DMZ Server
1.Apache --> Working fine(with out php Configuration)
2.PHP -->( Zip TS Vertion extracted in C:/php folder)

The Errod message "in c:/apache/conf/httpd file c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll application is not loaded,beacuse the side by side having probelm"


This is error i remembered.

* Note : What is the Domain Name and Server Name when installing the Apache ?

[Steffen]

You say 5.3.x, please be exact.

Assume you are running a VC9 version of Apache, like from here.
Side by Side error is mostly that the Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable is not installed.

You can download it from Microsoft:

X86:

X64:

Thanks a lot Steffen for spending your valuable time.

php-5.3.8-Win32-VC9-x86.zip this is the vertion i am using.

What is the use VC++ 2008 SP1 , Is it require to configure php and Apache ..?

After downloading the fallowing vc++ file i need to install in the server ?

[Steffen]

It is required to run Apache/PHP build with VC9.
See the left pane at http://windows.php.net/download/

The Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64) installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2008 installed.

Which Apache are you running and where downloaded ?


Steffen

[nagella]

Hi Steffen this is my apache vertion.
httpd-2.2.21-win32-x86-no_ssl

[Steffen]

I asked where downloaded, looks from apache.org. Please read the left panel at the above download link at php.net.
