Ostrzeżenie

Nie zalecamy korzystania z wątkowanego MPM na produkcyjnych serwerach Apache2. Zamiast niego wskazane jest używanie preforkowanego MPM, lub używanie Apache1. Wyjaśnienie powodów można znaleźć w odpowiednim punkcie FAQ, dotyczącym używania Apache2 z wątkowanym MPM

You are highly encouraged to take a look at the » Apache Documentation to get a basic understanding of the Apache 2.0.x Server. Also consider to read the » Windows specific notes for Apache 2.0.x before reading on here.

Ostrzeżenie

Apache 2.0.x is designed to run on Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 or Windows XP. At this time, support for Windows 9x is incomplete. Apache 2.0.x is not expected to work on those platforms at this time.

Download the most recent version of » Apache 2.0.x and a fitting PHP version. Follow the Manual Installation Steps and come back to go on with the integration of PHP and Apache.

There are two ways to set up PHP to work with Apache 2.0.x on Windows. One is to use the CGI binary the other is to use the Apache module DLL. In either case you need to edit your httpd.conf to configure Apache to work with PHP and then restart the server.

> Informacja: Nalezy pamiętać, że podając ścieżki w plikach konfiguracyjnych Apache w systemie Windows, wszystkie znaki backslash takie jak na przykład w ścieżce c:\directory\file.ext muszą być zamienione na znaki slash, na przykład c:/directory/file.ext. Zamykające znaki slash mogą być także niezbędne dla katalogów.

### Installing as a CGI binary

You need to insert these three lines to your Apache httpd.conf configuration file to set up the CGI binary:

Example #1 PHP and Apache 2.0 as CGI

    ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

    # For PHP 4
    Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"

    # For PHP 5
    Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php-cgi.exe"

Ostrzeżenie

Używając instalacji CGI, serwer jest podatny na wiele potencjalnych ataków. Sposoby obrony przed nimi zostały opisane w rozdziale o bezpieczeństwie instalacji CGI.

### Installing as an Apache module

You need to insert these two lines to your Apache httpd.conf configuration file to set up the PHP module for Apache 2.0:

Example #2 PHP and Apache 2.0 as Module

    # For PHP 4 do something like this:
    LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/php4apache2.dll"
    # Don't forget to copy the php4apache2.dll file from the sapi directory!
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

    # For PHP 5 do something like this:
    LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/php5apache2.dll"
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

    # configure the path to php.ini
    PHPIniDir "C:/php"

> Informacja: Remember to substitute your actual path to PHP for the c:/php/ in the above examples. Take care to use either php4apache2.dll or php5apache2.dll in your LoadModule directive and not php4apache.dll or php5apache.dll as the latter ones are designed to run with Apache 1.3.x.

Ostrzeżenie

Don't mix up your installation with DLL files from different PHP versions. You have the only choice to use the DLL's and extensions that ship with your downloaded PHP version.
