Thanks,
That worked well.
Extra step to smooth things in Vista
I would add that in the htdocs folder (for those lazy folks who don\’t change the root directory to be something else), that changing the permission ability for USER makes it really simple to add/edit files
go to htdocs directory
right click and select \”Customize This Folder\”
select \”Security\” tab.
select \”Edit\” or \”Advanced\” to change the permissions for USER

Hi
Thanks for the info
Short and good.
Well done
I have follow you instructions but I get an error:
The specified module could not be found.
My OS is Vista home premium.
Must say that the file: php5apache2.dll
was not part of the PHP package.
instead, I have: php5ts.dll
(Here is a good link to find that missing php5apache2.dll
http://kromann.info/download.php?strFolder=php5_1-Release_TS&strIndex=PHP5_1
)
This is the code lines from my httpd.conf
I have placed the lines at the end of the LoadModule list.
This line is the last one on the list:
#LoadModule vhost_alias_module modules/mod_vhost_alias.so
Then right bellow I have placed the 3 lines as you instructed:
LoadModule php5_module “php/php5apache2.dll”
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
Please advice
Thanks for your help

I recently installed apache and php on a Windows XP box and had the same error message ‘The Specified Module Could not be found’ as the above post.
My problem (and its solution) was due to the fact that I installed version 2.2 of Apache and had the line LoadModule php5_module “D:/php/php5apache2.dll” in my conf file. I changed this to LoadModule php5_module “C:/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll” and the problem was sorted.
The PHP install package includes this file - php5apache2_2.dll - as part of the download so you should already have it in your c:/php (or wherever you put php) folder.

It is missing one trivial addition of index.php addition to the httpd.conf file. this was not allowing my apache to auto load index.php

This does not work because when you restart the server it does not restart. These instructions aren’t very clear. This has mucked up my whole website. I suggest you do not use
