Problem installing PHP5 on WinXP and Apache2

Posted by Maddman75 on 10/19/05 20:05

I'm having trouble getting PHP installed on my system. I downloaded
the zip file and extracted the files to C:\php. Following the
documentation, I did the following

- added C:\php to my PATH
- added the following lines to the httpd.conf file for Apache

# Adding module references for PHP
LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

# configure the path to php.ini
PHPIniDir "C:/php/"

I tried it both with and without the last slash on the PHPIniDir, made
no difference.

- I copied and renamed php.ini-recommended as php.ini.
- One bit of advice in the documentation said to copy this file to "the
apache directory", which is a bit vauge. There's lots of Apache
directories. I tried it in both Apache2 and htdocs, no difference.

It does not seem to be processing PHP commands at all. The sample I'm
using is

<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo 'Hello World'; ?>
</body>
</html>

If I bring up the page and View Source, this is exactly what I get.
Its my understanding that if PHP were working correctly I'd just see
the Hello World, and not the surrounding PHP script.

Also, I checked my Apache logs, nothing relevent within. Anyone know
what I might have missed?

Thanks!
