I pretty much got nothin I downloaded all the stuff set it up and still nothin I am on Win 98 is that a prob?

where I get IIS? and I dont even have the option to restart Apache all I get is OK and EXIT so yea

Which operating system?

IIS comes with Windows:
Control Panel-->Add/Remove Programs-->Add/remove Windows Components-->Internet Information Services. (just check that)

The above is for XP btw, but is similar in Windows 9x.

are you using a # in front of the loadmodule?

ie.

#loadmodule php4_module.......

I'm using phptriad, cause apparently, apache 2.0 doesn't like my system, and neither does the newest version of MySQL. I'm running 98SE... i'm going to try this on a clean install of 2k Pro soon. So i just wanted to know if you have to have that.

Thanks.

Well if you put the # in front of the module it wont load that module at all and you need it to load. I finally just went to IIS and used the PHP.msi installer. It configured its self to work with IIS and all works well for me now, which is all i really wanted anyway. Seems like i tried this before and couldnt ever get it to work. Either way IIS is working for me. If you want to install it you have to go to Add/Remove programs and choose Add/Remove Windows Components then put a check next to IIS and find you Windows CD. :)

Didn't feel looking though all the post so here's my question
PHP Binary INSTALLATION

You say add the info in the file but i don't get where?

03. In php.ini, you will need to set the 'doc_root' to point to your webservers(apache) document_root, like below:
; The root of the PHP pages, used only if nonempty.
; if PHP was not compiled with FORCE_REDIRECT, you SHOULD set doc_root
; if you are running php as a CGI under any web server (other than IIS)
; see documentation for security issues. The alternate is to use the
; cgi.force_redirect configuration below
doc_root = "c:\network\apache2\htdocs"

04. Still in php.ini, change the 'extension_dir' setting to point to your php-install-dir, like below:
; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
extension_dir = "c:\network\php"

05. Still in php.ini, change the 'mail function' setting to point to your ISP, like below:
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = smtp.myisp.com
; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = johndoe@myisp.com

Thanks for posting this tutorial.

It is really helpful and useful :D

Thanks for this nice Tut. Then you can test it before you use it on your real board. Very handy.

Does Apache NOT work at all with Windows XP sans Sp1? I really really dont want to install SP1, its still too early for me.
