Description:
------------
Installation instructions into Apache as a CGI say to include the following:
   ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
   AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
   Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"

I found that I had to modify the php.exe to say php-cgi.exe.  In my PHP folder there is:
php.exe
php-win.exe
php-cgi.exe
with no documentation regarding which one does what.  I found php-cgi worked for me.


Expected result:
----------------
Expected more detail regarding the different EXE files packaged in the distribution.

Actual result:
--------------
Internal server error was coming up instead of PHP processed HTML.

I've already fixed this in the new installation part.

The php-win.exe is refered in the command line page and in the migration appendix.

Thanks for your report,
Nuno

IMHO the manual installation page should have details on what can be found in the package. We can add this after Wez reviewed the docs (so we know what to add more info about).

Ups, title change too

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
