Apache php module docs?

[Mark Space]

Hi all, I'm looking for the docs on the php module. Ol' Apache says
that the docs for LoadModule come from that module (PHP in this case)
but unfortuanlely I can't find it.

Is php5apache2_2.dll what I should be loading into Apache?

I could really use a point to some docs. Thanks!

php5apache2_2.dll is for use with apache v.2.2.

The dll that you use depends on the version of apache your running.
What is your version?

Apache 2.2.6

My config is:
LoadModule php5_module php5apache2_2.dll
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

But I'd like to find some docs, I have no idea really what these do,
even if I can guess.

Yes, I have this for testing. It wasn't working before, but it is now.

If this is processed correctly then PHP is working fine.

In my setup i'm running Apache 2.0.59 and I have

LoadModule php5_module "C:/php/php5apache2.dll"

Yes, the quotes and the absolute path seem to be necessary.

Before, I had copied my php .dll to the Apache modules directory, and
the .dll (and executable) for PHP are in the path. Why wouldn't all
that work? That's why I need the docs. The info on LoadModule on the
Apache website is really pathetic.

Thanks for your help, it appears to be working now.

Just FYI, I re-installed PHP just now (well, actually I added the
mysql.dll for PHP) and PHP stopped working for some reason in Apache.

After poking around a bit, I noticed that the installer had added the
PHPIniDir in my httpd.conf file, where I didn't have it before. So I
commented that line out, restarted, and suddenly PHP is working again.

Any ideas why?

But in general, yeah watch out for PHPIniDir, it might cause problems. I
have everything on my PATH already, maybe that's why it worked before.
I can't figure out why that line would stop PHP from working if it
worked before though...
