Apache configuration problem

[Arovane]

Hi

I am absolutely new to PHP, highly motivated, but already stuck with a problem in the adjustments in the configuration file. I follow the plan laid out in the new Blog Design Solutions book, pp. 33-8 and have downloaded the newest version of both PHP and Apache - 2.2.

Here's the problem: Apache cannot load the php5apache2.dll file into the server. In the conf file, line 116, it states; LoadModule php5_module C:/php5/php5apache2.dll and yes, php5 is placed at C:/.

So... What is this about?

Appreciate suggestions...

Please post the relevant parts of Apache's error log.

We are not psychic.

There is nothing to be learned form the error log, I'm afraid. But here is the full text:

Now, my attempts at setting Apache up for PHP was made on Friday...

The Test Configuration gives the nformation I stated in the first post.

Which error message do you get exactly ? How exactly did you install php ? Alternatively, download and install xampp (http://www.xampp.org).
