Php configuration for Apache on Windows server.....not working
hi guys,
We've installed php 5.3.3 (Vc6 module) on Windows 2008 R2, along with Apache 2.2 (downloaded from apache.org). When running the actual phpinfo.php file on the localhost, we're seeing that the environment for Apache is pointing to the incorrect locations. I've attached a screenshot. They're outputting to the Microsoft folders, when they shouldn't. IIS has completely been removed too, so we don't understand why the path isn't going to the actual correct location.
Any ideas on resolving this?
Thanks

hi,
the documentroot in the httpd.conf is pointing to the location:
"C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdoc
Is that right?

That's where you currently have it. I thought you wanted to change it?

That's what I don't get! Why is the phpinfo file picking up the apache environment as the one in the IIS express folder and not the one in the htdocs folder?
It is looking for PHP according to the system vars
Click Start, right click My Computer
Click Advanced Settings
Advanced Tab, click Environment Variables button at the bottom
This will list where your system is looking for default programs
If you need to change then just edit the value and change the path.

I've done that, i've changed it to the supposed right location.
On the command prompt, i've then done the following:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\PHP\ (location of PHP)
then run the following:
php.exe index.php
And it comes up with the error below i've attached. If we comment this out, then it just skips to the next error meaning that it may not be an actual .dll file error but a configuration error?

hey guys,
excuse the hiatus, i've managed to get it up and running by entirely removing the installations and re-installing everything again.
I then went ahead and downloaded Apache from the apache lounge as I could then use VC9 files for the installations. All is well now though.
And again, sorry for not responding earlier.

Also search for:
<Directory "C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdoc
and change the path again to the same as above.
Save the file and restart Apache.
