Apache Friends Support Forum

i have the lastest version of xampp running on WinXP Pro, but i have a problem with mod_rewrite that has to do with a particular php bug here

see http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35059

so i was adviced to install the most recent of version 4.4.2(i.e the one am using with xampp).

how do i do that?

but i have a problem with mod_rewrite that has to do with a particular php bug here

You have really a problem with this bug?

BTW:
Which XAMPP? In the current XAMPP, PHP 4.4.2-pl1 is included.

i'm using version 1.5.1

i'm using version 1.5.1

Then you have PHP 4.4.1-pl1.

From the "news.txt":

04 Nov 2006, Version 4.4.1-pl1
...
- Fixed bug #35059 (Apache2 crash with mod_rewrite). (Ilia)
...

does that means my version ox XAMPP have that bug fixed?

or if i use the switch app to switch to PHP 5 would the error the fixed?

does that means my version ox XAMPP have that bug fixed?

Yes.

if yes then why am i still getting blank pages

I don't know.

Or better:
I don't know what are you really doing...

If you need help, make a complete description of your problem and how to reproduce the problem on our pc's.

well i fixed the problem;
what i did was that i switched to PHP5 and my host does support PHP4.4.2

and i see no reason why they should have the same problem.

so i'll just make sure my PHP scripts doesn't exceeds PHP4x's limit(even though i have PHP5 currently running on my machine locally)
