We do not recommend using a threaded MPM
in production with Apache2. Use the prefork MPM instead, or use Apache1. For information
on why, read the related FAQ entry on using
Apache2 with a threaded MPM
You are highly encouraged to take a look at the
Apache Documentation to get
a basic understanding of the Apache 2.0.x Server. Also consider to
read the Windows specific
notes for Apache 2.0.x before reading on here.
PHP and Apache 2.0.x compatibility notes:
The following versions of PHP are known to work with the most recent
version of Apache 2.0.x:
you have always the option to obtain PHP through
anonymous CVS.
These versions of PHP are compatible to Apache 2.0.40 and later.
Apache 2.0 SAPI-support started with PHP 4.2.0.
PHP 4.2.3 works with Apache 2.0.39, don't use any other version of Apache with
PHP 4.2.3. However, the recommended setup is to use PHP 4.3.0 or later with
the most recent version of Apache2.
All mentioned versions of PHP will work still with
Apache 1.3.x.
Warning
Apache 2.0.x is designed to run on Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 or
Windows XP. At this time, support for Windows 9x is incomplete.
Apache 2.0.x is not expected to work on those platforms at this time.
Download the most recent version of
Apache 2.0.x and a fitting PHP version.
Follow the Manual Installation
Steps and come back to go on with the integration of PHP and Apache.
There are two ways to set up PHP to work with Apache 2.0.x on Windows.
One is to use the CGI binary the other is to use the Apache module DLL.
In either case you need to edit your httpd.conf to configure Apache
to work with PHP and then restart the server.
Note: Remember that when adding
path values in the Apache configuration files on Windows, all backslashes
such as c:\directory\file.ext must be converted to
forward slashes, as c:/directory/file.ext.
You need to insert these three lines to your Apache httpd.conf
configuration file to set up the CGI binary:
Example 6-5. PHP and Apache 2.0 as CGI
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
# For PHP 4
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"
# For PHP 5
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php-cgi.exe"
Warning
By using the CGI setup, your server
is open to several possible attacks. Please read our
CGI security section to learn how to
defend yourself from those attacks.
You need to insert these two lines to your
Apache httpd.conf configuration file to set up the
PHP module for Apache 2.0:
Example 6-6. PHP and Apache 2.0 as Module
# For PHP 4 do something like this:
LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/php4apache2.dll"
# Don't forget to copy the php4apache2.dll file from the sapi directory!
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
# For PHP 5 do something like this:
LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
# configure the path to php.ini
PHPIniDir "C:/php"
Note:
Remember to substitute the c:/php/ for your actual
path to PHP in the above examples. Take care to use
either php4apache2.dll or
php5apache2.dll in your LoadModule directive and
notphp4apache.dll or
php5apache.dll as the latter ones are designed to
run with Apache 1.3.x.
Note:
If you want to use content negotiation, read
related FAQ.
Warning
Don't mix up your installation with DLL files from
different PHP versions. You have the only choice
to use the DLL's and extensions that ship with your downloaded PHP version.
