Apache :: Question about httpd.manifest

Do we still need to install the httpd.manifest when using the apache2handler with the Apache 2.2 binary from apache.org (not your version)?

Also, is your version of the apache2handler the only version available right now? Any idea when the official version will be available on php.net?

If you don't use Apache from this page, you don't need the manifest file.
No, this isn't the only avalible version from apache 2.2.x for Windows. Now it is download able from apache.org but no ssl support.
I don't have a idea when PHP offical will support Apache 2.2 for Windows. I'm in many mailing lists from PHP, but haven't heared about that support.

Please look here for any details of planing from the PHP Team

Got the information that PHP 5.2.x will support Apache 2.2 and higher. Can be downloaded at http://snaps.php.net/ But it is still development

We still need to install .NET Framework or Redistributable, right? (For the apache2handler from your site)

James Blond

Yes you need .NET 2 or Microsoft C++ 2005 Redistributable that is true.

If I'm installing the php handler on a 64-bit OS, do I need the 64-bit redistributable?

James Blond

Yes you need the 64-bit redistributable kit. Can be found here

Compiled version from apache 2.2.2 can be found at www.blackdot.be
