Solved: In Windows 'Explorer' in Vista, set User permissions for the
htdocs - go to htdocs folder within the Apache folders, right click,
Properties, Security, Edit, select your name as User, allow Full
Control, Modify etc. Now open the files you created like test.php or
index1.html and save them again. Then they will be accessible like
http://localhost/test.php etc. Whereas without this they will be 'file
not found'.
Even if there is only one User in Windows and it is also the
Administrator, you need to be recognised as Administrator for the action
being done, normal log on to Windows will be as User only.
I got to the above solution when I noticed the
http://localhost/index.html showed Apache working, in the browser using
the index.html that comes with the installation, but index1.html saved
in the same folder did not appear in Windows Explorer and also was 'page
not found' in the browser, even though it saved OK and was visible and
loadable in the html editor.
php now also works with Apache, I think I was missing from httpd.conf
within <IfModule mime_module> </IfModule>:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

I still have the strange thing of saving a file in htdocs within the

Start and Run as Administrator), but then not seeing it in Windows
Explorer - must be something to do with UAC. But main problem is
getting php to work with Apache. Please let me know if there is
anywhere else I should look. I took the time to read the php
installation notes carefully and the Apache notes (which seemed to be
mostly about meeting someone in a computer fair to check their
fingerprint, I joke), but to no avail.
Does anyone have a working, full, step-by-step set of instructions for
Vista, PHP 5.2.9 Apache 2.2.11 ?
Thanks,

Original post [ed]
I have a working Apache 2.2.11 server and php 5.2.9 installed.
APACHE CONFIGURATION
Files are in: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/
As per installation instructions, Apache httpd.conf is amended to add
at the end of the LoadModule lines (though not between any tags):
LoadModule php5_module "C:/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll"
PHPIniDir "C:/PHP"
And at the end of the file:
AddModule mod_php5.c
(Would this be .conf, not .c?). , (per php notes 'Installing as an
Apache module'). On clicking Start Apache http server, this gives
"Invalid command 'AddModule' perhaps misspelled or defined by a module
not included in server configuration." The PHP Installation guide
says to add this at the end of the AddModule section. There is no
AddModule in the default http.conf of Apache 2.2.11. So for now have
commented it out.
Between <IfModule mime_module> and </IfModule>, I have added:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
PHP CONFIGURATION
The php.ini file is in C:/PHP.
php.ini has been amended as follows:
doc_root = "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs"
WINDOWS CONFIGURATION
I have added ;C:/PHP to the end of the string for Environment Variables.
I have re-booted and re-started. I am testing this file:
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\test.php
which has
<?
print("test");
?>
and this outputs as code rather than as 'test' or it does not output
at all.
When I start the Apache http server, I get:
httpd.exe: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified
domain name
, using 10.0.0.4 for ServerName
(OS 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network
address/port)
is normally permitted. : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
My ISP has a dynamic IP address system, what do I use for ServerName?
Do I need a static address or registered web site name to run on home
computer?
Apache httpd.conf has:
# ServerName gives the name and port that the server uses to identify
itself.
# This can often be determined automatically, but we recommend you
specify
# it explicitly to prevent problems during startup.
#
# If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP
address here.
#
#ServerName
Any idea what might be wrong with the php code showing?
Thanks,
John
