I am having trouble getting apache to call php for .html and .php pages. Whenever I try to open a .php page Opera displays the .php file as text. IE attempts to save the file to disk. I believe I have followed the instructions posted on this thread.

I have installed php 5.2.0 and apache 2.2. The apache service runs with no errors. The following changes to php.ini and httpd.conf have been made:

PHP.ini

doc_root = "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs"

extension_dir = "c:\php5\ext"

httpd.conf

LoadModule php5_module "c:/php5/php5apache2_2.dll"

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php

PHPIniDir "C:/php5"

I added c:\php5 to the path variable and rebooted.

If anyone could see what I am missing, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

remove the following line from your httpd.conf file.

PHPIniDir "C:/php5"

This doesn't make sense why it works, but I found this to be the solution on my own installation!

Cheers,
Phil

PHPIniDir is for the location of the php.ini if not set in httpd.conf php takes the one from C:\Windows / C:\Winnt if there is none php takes default values for settings.
