Configuring Apache for new PHP version

[chvol]

Hello all,

I am running PHP under Apache webserver on my Windows 98 PC. I need to install the latest version of PHP. I downloaded PHP 4.2.3 from

http://www.php.net/downloads.php,

but at the end it said, “The software to automatically configure the Apache httpd.conf file has not yet been written. You will have to configure Apache manually. See the install.txt file for more details.” I looked at install.txt but don’t know how to do what it says.

You don't know how to edit a textfile? Just open the httpd.conf in whatever texteditor you prefer and edit the directives in there. //Daniel

Hey,

Oh, come on now! You know it's more than that. If a user said they didn't know how to use a particular software package, would you tell them, "You don't know how to type?"?

Just open httpd.conf and put these lines in there (if they aren't there already)

LoadModule php4_module    modules/libphp4.so
#Uncomment this if you have Apache 1.3.x
#AddModule mod_php4.c
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
