I installed apache server 2.2.19 on a vista machine. It was running fine but I tried to configure it to use php by modifying the httpd.conf file. These are the lines I added

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
PHPIniDir “C:\PHP”

I added this below this line

AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz

I also added this line

LoadModule php5_module “C:\PHP\php5apache2_2.dll”

I added this below this line

#LoadModule vhost_alias_module modules/mod_vhost_alias.so

I tried to restart the apache server but every time i do so it returns an error message that The requested operation has failed. What could be the problem?

    I don´t have any experience with installing it on windows, but the following lines seem very wrong to me:

    PHPIniDir “C:\PHP”
LoadModule php5_module “C:\PHP\php5apache2_2.dll”

    Is that really what you added? If it is, I would suggest changing it to:

    PHPIniDir "C:\PHP"
LoadModule php5_module "C:\PHP\php5apache2_2.dll"

    Note that I am using " instead of the curly quotes you are using.
