httpd.conf with PHP 5

[jdickens10]

I've downloaded Apache's HTTP 2.2.18 Server from

http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi

(Win32 Binary without crypto (no mod_ssl) (MSI Installer) and installed it with localhost as the domain and server name. Everything worked fine (tried starting, stopping and restarting), but then I modified httpd.conf with the following lines:

LoadModule php5_module "C:\PHP\php5apache2_2.dll"

and

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
PHPIniDir "C:\PHP"

so it can work with PHP5 installed in C:\PHP (downloaded from

http://windows.php.net/download/,

PHP 5.2 (5.2.17), VC6 x86 Non Thread Safe). After modifying httpd.conf, I tried to restart Apache but I get a pop-up error message saying "The requested operation has failed!". Restoring httpd.conf to its original configuration, Apache works fine again. The file php5apache2_2.dll in C:\PHP is working correctly and no problems were experienced during PHP installation. Any idea?

I simulated your scenario and ran into the same problem.

I am not much of the Windows guy, but the issue has been attended in the below article
