[SOLVED] installing php on apache

[baraxil]

i put this in my httpd.conf file..

ScriptAlias /php/" C:/Program Files/php"

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Action application/x-httpd-php "C:/Program Files/PHP/php.exe"

 

and i get an error that says..

Load it as a Module instead of cgi (script alias)

 

Apache module lines:

LoadModule php5_module "C:/Program Files/PHP/php5apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

 

Note: if you are using apache2.2.x then replace php5apache2.dll with php5apache2_2.dll, or if you are using PHP4 then replace php5 with php4

 

Save the httpd.conf and restart Apache.

As a side note I would not recommend installing anything server related in C:\program files.

 

I prefer to install these in C:\server instead. This keeps everything centralised and keeps paths short and space free. Having spaces involved in paths may cause problems.
