I've followed your instructions but am confused about a couple of items:

The latest release of PHP is 4.3.5. I assume that there is no change to the instructions for this version?

When amending php.ini should the file paths be in inverted commas or not.

The instructions show

doc_root = C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs and
session.save_path = "C:\tmp"

Apache seems to be working OK (I can see a test page at localhost:8080) but when I stop it and then add

LoadModule php4_module “C:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll”
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Save file

to httpd.conf it refuses to restart.
If I remove those lines it starts quite happily but won't display the phpinfo.php page.

I'm obviously doing something wrong. Could you please help

Thanks in advance

I think I've gpt a couple of things confused and may need to edit my instructions.

1. I've checked PHP4.3.5 and it does indeed work the way I said.

2. File paths in php.ini - it doesn't seem to matter if they are in double-quotes or not, but I recommend putting them in double-quotes, and am amending my tutorial accordingly.

3. The Apache httpd.conf is different. All file paths MUST be in double-quotes from Windows systems, and have forward slashes instead of back slashes.

4. The code you need to add is:

LoadModule php4_module “C:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll”
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

The words "Save file" wsere my instructions on what to do next. Again, I need to correct the tutorial. Sorry.

I've corrected all my typos. The worst error was the line beginning AddType. please notice my correction to this.

I have also uploaded a PDF version for you to download.

That seems to have done the trick.

Thanks
