|
|
hi sirs,
i have windows os xp/prof. and installed apache2_2. After installing apache2_2 and i checked in explorer as http://localhost...it works fine.
hoping that apache2_2 was successfully installed, i start installing php5.2.1 . After successful installation i start editing the httpd.conf in the apache directory.
i added the following lines
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
LoadModule php5_module “c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll”
phpinidir = "c:/php"
after adding the above lines in httpd.conf and then stopped the apache server, and then again started apache server , it then displays the following error
httpd.exe :syntax error on line 115 of c:/program files/apache software foundation/apache2_2/conf/httpd.conf: invalid loadmodule path
\x93 c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll\x94
note : php5apache2_2.dll was availble in c:/php
kindly help me to resolve the error

In looking at \x93 c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll\x94 I wonder if you have whitespace after the open quote of the module path? |

I did everything right too up until it told me to change the apache2_2/conf/httpd.conf file I could not do it, because it had not existed
How do i get this file? |

You didn't use " but the fancy version that leans backwards and forwards!
make sure you edit the file in notepad and not wordpad |

I do have the file called httpd.txt but not httpd.conf. Are they the same, because when I edit the file, yes in notepad, it doesn't help my problem at all
It still attempts to download the file everytime I open it in my web browser |

Ok, so I've been looking around for a fix to this exact same problem and spent an hour and a half yesterday doing what everyone on this and other sites were suggesting and none of it worked. However, a little while ago I did something and now everything works fine. It seems like nothing and by all means probably shouldn't work but it did on my system, I don't know about yours.
Ok, open up the php5apache2_2.dll in notepad. Search for php5_module, it should be the very last thing. Copy php5_module from there and paste it into the httpd file in apache where it's supposed to go. Here's my line from httpd.conf
LoadModule php5_module c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll
I put this at the end of the LoadModule list. Everything else you did you shouldn't have to worry about. I've got windows xp professional edition with the latest service pack and the versions of apache and php I downloaded 2 days ago. Hope this helps, I know it seems like a longshot but hey, why not? |
