If you followed our Configuring Apache to Load PHP tutorial,
and used php5apache2.dll in the LoadModule statement, you will get the following error when you try to restart your Apache server:
httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 116 of C:/Program Files
/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load C:/Program Files/php-5.2.0-Win32
/php5apache2.dll into server: The specified module could
not be found.
This tutorial explains why and helps you to resolve the issue.
1. Go to the PHP installation directory: C:/Program Files/php-5.2.0-Win32. You will see two files:
11/02/2006 12:41 PM 36,925 php5apache2.dll
11/02/2006 12:41 PM 36,927 php5apache2_2.dll
2. PHP installation guide tells you to use php5apache2.dll.
But that's wrong. php5apache2.dll is not compatible with Apache 2.2 on Microsoft Windows.
You should use php5apache2_2.dll.
3. Open Apache server configuration file again and change the LoadModule statement as:
LoadModule php5_module "C:/Program Files/php-5.2.0-Win32/php5apache2_2.dll"
PHPIniDir "C:/Program Files/php-5.2.0-Win32"
...
<IfModule mime_module>
...
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
</IfModule>
4. Start Apache server again. You will no problem now. |
