Apache error "requested operation could not complete" after PHP installed

[smartflowr2002]

hey guys,
i have used XAMPP for apache/php/mysql so far,
but i have decided to go to use individual servers for more performance, and also for learning.
plus i was facing some issue on xampp too, so i wanted to change it..
(i also used wamp but i dint like it, buts that not the issue)

now i have installed apache 2.2.15 (latest from apache)
and i installed php 5.3 VC6 safe thread.
after installation when i started apache i got error "requested operation could not complete"

i saw httpd.conf and 4 lines were added by php installaion

#BEGIN PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL
PHPIniDir "X:/Web_Server/PHP/"
LoadModule php5_module "X:/Web_Server/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll"
#END PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL

i commented out the middle two lines just to check and it apache worked, but when i un-comment those lines apache fail to start..

i tried googling, many tutorials, instrustion like setting env variable, coping dll to bin folder none work..

can u please help me?

   1. #BEGIN PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL
PHPIniDir "X:/Web_Server/PHP/"
LoadModule php5_module "X:/Web_Server/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll"
#END PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL
 
 

make sure php.ini exists in
X:/Web_Server/PHP/ dir
and the dll file
X:/Web_Server/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll exists in the described path.
and also make sure
you do not have duplicate of
above directives

Best Regards,
Johny

tell me how many instance of PHPIniDir is available
