Apache Friends Support Forum

I have had problems with running PHP as an Apache module while using XDEBUG (on Windows Vista). I've tried WAMP and XAMPP, and both had the same problem -- Apache crashed. Different versions of Apache and PHP. All crashed. I've tried different things I've seen recommended on the Internet and those I could come up myself, to no avail. What helped was to switch to CGI mode of running PHP. The switching process is somewhat complicated and error prone, and it would be nice if somebody created an easy way to switch from one mode to another.
