worked fine, now timeout error

[Guest_imported]

I had my site up and running with apache fine. Then I tried to configure php. the installation instructions I had requiered me to input 3 lines in my httpd.conf. I did that and when I tried to visit my site It found site and waited for reply forever then I got an Internet explorer error, the operation timed out. I deleted the lines, tried it again and same thing operation timed out. I didn't change anything else and I have tried re-installing apache, if you have anything at all please let me know.
thanks

Hi,

The apache install over an existing installation should have left the httpd.conf intact so there's no doubt errors in that. What you need to get php working is the following in httpd.conf :

LoadModule php4_module c:/php/sapi/php4apache.dll

AddModule mod_php4.c

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php4

(Change path to dll if different)

You should also copy the php4ts.dll module to c:\winnt\system32 (NT/W2K/XP) or c:\windows\system on 9x.

If it still doesn't work and you've got nothing you want to keep in httpd.conf then go to c:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\conf and delete all the files in there before you do a reinstall .

Hope this helps

before you move php4ts.dll to your system32 directory make sure you stop apache or else your site will go down and you will get timeout errors. That might be your problem now. If thats the case then just reboot your computer and you should be all set.

Good luck
