dennis, the first step is to get apache running. did you do that? did you test it by typing in "localhost" and getting the apache page? i also found it easier t install apache to the c:\ so that the path ends up being c:\apache. The default includes "Program files" in the path and I think the space caused me some big time grief. you may be able to overcome that by using quote marks surrounding the path, but i chose to install at c:\ instead. php4apache.dll should be in your php/dll folder (there is another important file i can't recall right now). i moved it up to my c:\php folder which i put in my xp path startup path. if you don't have it i don't think php wll run. give me a little more information and i'll help from there.

When I try to run Apache, I get the message that the system could not find the php4apache.dll. This is a line in the httpd.conf file, but there is no php4apache.dll on my PC. The PHP version is 4.3.3.8, and Apache is is version 1.3.something. Can anyone help? Dennis --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Win 1 of 4,000 free domain names from Yahoo! Enter now.
