To whom it may concern,

I recently downloaded PHP for windows, as a binary file.

I also installed apache 1.3.x for windows and set it up to run as a service.

Now, I wanted to run php as a module for apache so I used the install guide provided.

The guide failed to state that once you add in the:
LoadModule php4_module c:/php/SAPI/php4apache.dll
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

You must also add in a line to the "Addmodule" section directly below, namely:
AddModule mod_php4.c

Otherwise you are returned with an error:
[error] Cannot remove module mod_php4.c: not found in module list

This error won't allow apache to send php the .php scripts to interpret them. Thus showing a blank screen.

It's a minor oversight, but to a fledgling PHP'er it could be a put off from using php or apache.

Yours,
Huw Dowden
