Bug #39800 Windows installer does not remove PHP hooks in httpd.conf
Submitted: 2006-12-11 16:07 UTC Modified: 2008-08-22 17:37 UTC

Description:
------------
The Windows Installer of PHP 5.2 does not remove the PHP hooks in the httpd.conf of Apache 2.2.3 when uninstalling PHP 5.2.0. So it's impossible to restart Apache 2.2.3 if you don't remove the hooks manually.

BTW: It seems that \n instead of \r\n is used as line ending in the configuration snippet inserted by the installer. Maybe that should be changed to make the average windows editors happy...

Reproduce code:
---------------
Simply install and uninstall PHP 5.2.0 with the Windows Installer to verify the problem.

Expected result:
----------------
httpd.conf without PHP hooks.

Actual result:
--------------
#BEGIN PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL
PHPIniDir "C:\Programme\PHP\"
LoadModule php5_module "C:\Programme\PHP\php5apache2_2.dll"
#END PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALL

I forgot to mention: If you leave the PHP hooks in the httpd.conf and you reinstall PHP, you end up having a second block with PHP hooks.
