Here you will learn about Apache installation and configuration, PHP installation and configuration, MySQL installation, how to Configure Apache Server for PHP, how to edit httpd.conf file, how to edit php.ini file.
Download Apache web server for Windows from www.apache.org
Download PHP for Windows from  www.php.net
Download MySQL for Windows from  www.mysql.com
When you will install Apache Web Server, by default it will be installed in "C:/Program Files" directory. During installation you have to change path to install Apache in "C:\Apache" or in "C:\Apache2" directory.
To install PHP unzip PHP distributable zip file in "C:\php" directory.
Install MySQL in "C;\mysql" directory. During installation change default directory "C:\Program Files" to "C:\mysql".
Configure Apache httpd.conf file, which is located in conf directory.
On my PC it is "C:\Apache2\conf\httpd.conf"
For Apache 2.x version and PHP 4.x.x version add this text in httpd.conf file:
LoadModule php4_module c:/php/php4apache2.dll
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php
Copy php4apache2.dll in C:\php directory. Copy php4apache2.dll and php4ts.dll in Windows/system directory or in WINT/system32 directory.
Edit php.ini.dist file in C:\php directory
Find the text:
; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
extension_dir = "./"
extension_dir = "C:\php\extensions"
Find:
;upload_tmp_dir =
and type directory to which your user will be permitted to upload files. On my PC it is:
upload_tmp_dir = "c:\Apache2\htdocs\catalog\upload"
Rename php.ini.dist file to php.ini and copy it to Windows\system or WINT\system32 directory
For Apache2 and PHP5 add to httpd.conf file the following lines:
LoadModule php5_module c:/php/php5apache2.dll
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .phtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php5
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php
Copy php5apache2.dll in C:\php directory. Copy php5apache2.dll and php5ts.dll and libmysql.dll in Windows/system directory or WINT/system32 directory.
If you use Apache 2.2 you may have error:
httpd.exe: Syntak error on line 118 of C:/Apache2/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load C://php/php5apache2.dll into server: The specified module could not be found.
In this case you have change load module linein httpd.conf:
LoadModule php5_module c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll
It enough for me. I have professional Windows XP SP2. If it is not enough for you then download additional dll:php5apache2_2.dll_ from link below
See additional informtion in http://forum.vingrad.ru/topic-100737.html
Edit php.ini.dist file in C:\php directory
Find the line:
; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
extension_dir = "./"
and set it to your extension directory. On my PC it is:
extension_dir = "C:\php\ext"
Find the line:
;upload_tmp_dir =
Type directory to which your user will be permitted to upload files.
On my PC it is:
upload_tmp_dir = "c:\Apache2\htdocs\catalog\upload"
Uncomment
# php.MySQL.dll
Rename php.ini.dist file to php.ini and copy it to Windows\system or WINT\system32 directory
For testing configuration regardless of PHP version create a test directory in C:\Apache2\htdocs directory.
Open notepad and type a php script:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Save file as phpInfo.php in the test directory.
Start Apache web server from Windows start up menu.
Open you Internet Explorer and type in the following URL address:
http:/localhost/
If Apache installed and configured correctly, Apache home page displays.
To test php installation and configuration, type the following URL address in Internet Explorer:
http:/localhost/test/phpinfo.php
Click Go button. If installation is correct, you will see a long text with information about your Windows, Apache, and PHP setup.
