Hello, I have installed PHP 5.2, MySQL 5.0, and Apache 2.2. Everything
works fine except the error mentioned in the subject. Here is the
error log for Apache which shows the problem...

Fixed. Don't know what the problem was but it took me 4 hours of
frustration.

These sorts of problems are usually differences in the PATH environment
variable between your user environment, and that of the webserver service.

I don't suppose you rebooted in the meantime? That causes the service host
process to pick up a fresh environment, that may have had changes applied to
it.

Isn't that a legitimate problem solving algorithm in Windopes? Check
everything, reboot a couple of times, get angry with that stupid
no-help dog or paperclip, make pseudorandom changes in appearantly
irrelevant places, work up a high bloodpressure, scream at the pc, start
believing it's a conspiracy and consider getting even with the world by
emptying a few clips of 9mm ammo at the nearest school. Decide against it
after all, give up, fire up your browser and surf to your fave pron site.
10 to 1 it's working by then, for no reason at all.

I ended up just installing WAMP, then I studied why MySQL was working
with WAMP and not mine. I'm positive I set the environmental
variables. To this day I still don't know why WAMP worked but my
configuration didn't. Its... crazy. I'm sure there must be something.
In the end I saved all of WAMPs my.ini, php.ini, and httpd.conf, then
installed erased WAMP,

Then I installed PHP, MySQL, and Apache, copied over the config files,
and edited them appropriately. Then it worked. After I studied my old
config files and my new config files they are completely the same.

So I am just very curious at what the problem could have been.
