Hi, I'm new at this but i'll try to explain as clearly as possible...

I am wanting to start learning php, so i've started to install apache and php on my system (win xp pro).

I followed the great tutorial here

www.dmxzone.com/ShowDetail.asp?NewsId=6452

and the apache install seemed to work fine, but when installing php, the last part of the instructions say to insert this line of code:

LoadModule php4_module "C:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll"

into the apache httpd.conf file - once i do this, apache will no longer start. if i comment out this line of code, apache runs fine.

I have checked this path over and over and it is definitely correct.

i have tried running the apache test configuration tool and it tells me that this specified module cannot be found.

Can anyone suggest where i may be going wrong?

Thanks,

Kriss

have you got the php4 module? and make sure that its pointing to the right path.
