ID: 53696 Comment by: masikwha at yahoo dot com Reported by: helge dot rowold at datendrexler dot de Summary: erroneous automatic entry into httpd.conf Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: Apache2 related Operating System: Windows 7 PHP Version: 5.3.5 Assigned To: jmertic Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Adding to http.conf following: PHPInidir "C:/PHP" LoadModule php5_module "php5apache2_2.dll" Error: Invalid command 'PHPIniDir' perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration.. While installing php 5.3.5 with installer, gives you option to choose web server from a list of many, I chose Apache 2.2x module, but this adds to http.conf #BEGIN PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL ScriptAlias /php/ "" Action application/x-httpd-php "php-cgi.exe" #END PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL So tried installing php5.3.3 without selecting web server, this adds nothing to http.conf file but adding PHPIniDir ... gives error I have repeated the installation process of PHP manually as well by extracting zipped files to C:/PHP folder same result. Seems like PHIIniDir directive in http.conf file is not understood by Apache 2.2.17, hence I tried installing apache 2.2.064(previous version) but the same result.

After successful installatioin of Apache 2.2.17 on Vista, php-5.3.5-Win32-VC9-x86 (Thread safe) installer seems to add following lines on httpd.conf file, #BEGIN PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL ScriptAlias /php/ "" Action application/x-httpd-php "php-cgi.exe" #END PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL (Note there is no PHPIniDir ) On restarting the apache it gives error saying, ScriptAlias takes two names, fake name and real name... I tried commenting #CriptAlias /php/ "" , Apache runs ok but it doesn't php is not working. For proper installation of PHP 5.3.5 is that all the changes necessary ?? (which however is not working )? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-01-19 21:57:49] jmer...@php.net This bug has been fixed in SVN.

Apache cannot find php5apache2_2.dll even if at default location: The Apache service named reported the following error: >>> httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 516 of C:/Archivos de programa/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load C:/Archivos de programa/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/php5apache2_2.dll into server: No se puede encontrar el m\xf3dulo . Copying settings from PHP/5.3.4 fixes the issue: #BEGIN PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL PHPIniDir "C:/Archivos de programa/PHP/" LoadModule php5_module "C:/Archivos de programa/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll" #END PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-01-08 14:57:09] paj...@php.net hi John, Something went wrong in the last installer update. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
