PHP + Apache configuration

Reference: http://php.net/manual/zh/install.windows.apache2.php

Modify the basic configuration information of Apache

Modify the paths of ServerRoot and DocumentRoot in {apache}/conf/httpd. conf:

# Server file path: ServerRoot "c:/bin/Apache24" # Project file path: DocumentRoot "c:/bin/htdocs"
  
   
#...
  

Install using Apache handler

Add the following information to {apache_path}/conf/httpd. conf:

# Install and run PHPLoadModule php5_module "C:/bin/php5.6/php5apache2_4.dll" in Apache handler mode"
   
    
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php. php # configure the php. ini path PHPIniDir "C:/bin/php5.6" # configure the format of the processing file
    
     
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
    
   

Install using Apache handler

Download fast-cgi module: http://www.apachelounge.com/download/win32/
Decompress the package to the modules directory of apche.

Add the following fast-cgi configuration information to {apache_path}/conf/httpd. conf:

# Load the fast-cgi module LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so # fast-cgi module configuration
   
    
# Where is your php. ini file? FcgidInitialEnv PHPRC "c:/bin/php5.6/" FcgidInitialEnv PATH "C:/bin/php5.6; C:/WINDOWS/system32; C:/WINDOWS; C: /WINDOWS/System32/Wbem; "FcgidInitialEnv SystemRoot" C:/Windows "FcgidInitialEnv SystemDrive" C: "FcgidInitialEnv TEMP" C:/WINDOWS/TEMP "FcgidInitialEnv TMP" C: /WINDOWS/TEMP "FcgidInitialEnv windir" C:/WINDOWS "FcgidIOTimeout 40 FcgidConnectTimeout 10 FcgidMaxProcesses 1000 running 64 FcgidProcessLifeTime 120 running 10000 running 0 FcgidFixPathinfo 1 # Global Config Example
    
     
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI AddHandler fcgid-script. php FcgidWrapper "c:/bin/php5.6/php-cgi.exe". php
     
   

Detailed configuration information is provided in README.txt of the fast-cgi.pdf compressed package.

Start Apache server

Run {apache_path}/bin/httpd.exe on the cmd command line.

In phpinfo (), the running mode is determined by the value of "Server API" of phpinfo:

• CGI/FastCGI: Fast-cg mode
• Apache 2.0 Handler: Apache handler mode

If both apache hanlder and fast-cgi are configured in httpd. cnf, the apache handler mode is used.
