Apache 2.4 and PHP5.9 compatibility problems

Hi All,

I have been trying to get PHP up and running. However, any PHP code I have in any file is ignored. All HTML runs fine. I have installed PHP, and I put the following lines of code into the httpd.conf file:

LoadModule php5_module "c:/xampp/php/php5apache2_4.dll"

PHPIniDir "c:/xampp/php"

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

However, the second line that points to the PHP init file causes Apache to crash, with the following message:

8:00:39 PM [Apache] Error: Apache shutdown unexpectedly.
8:00:39 PM [Apache] This may be due to a blocked port, missing dependencies,
8:00:39 PM [Apache] improper privileges, a crash, or a shutdown by another method.
8:00:39 PM [Apache] Check the "/xampp/apache/logs/error.log" file
8:00:39 PM [Apache] and the Windows Event Viewer for more clues

The error.log file for Apache is empty. So I'm assuming this may be a program bug.

If I comment out the second line, it acts as if PHP doesn't exist.

Anyone know any fixes / workarounds?

Hi,

Sorry, we don't provide any support on how to upgrade any of the core single components in XAMPP.

Best wishes,
