my fello Forumers,

recently i m doing a reserach & testing on this method,

i got two window machine 1. is running vista business, 2, running vista home basic.
meanwhile i m triyng to installed Apache 2.2.14 and PHP 5.2 on both the window vista editions, however i encounter that some minor issue on the window vista home basics

at first i installed apache 2.2.14 without PHP configuration on httpd.conf it able to run perfectly, once when i configure the conf file with
LoadModule PHP5 module "c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll" it cause apache fail to startup and hangs, however i try this on vista business on the same method it work perfectly...

is there anyone tried this before installing apache 2.2.14 and configured php compatible on window vista home basics?

i try on EasyPHP the bundle package for user to setup PHP/MYSQL/MySqlAdmin/Apache wihout hassle to configure manually, it still return the same error on the window vista home basics, apache server unable to start.

are this the issue that window vista home basics totally not support on the HTTPD.conf with the loaded php 5 module? or anyone got some workaround on this issue and can be share over here who is working on it?

beside this i found out that vista home basics support IIS features, however it does not support the configuration features for users to do modification on the platform, probably IIS will be out of my mind if i m planning to host php web on the window vista home basics hosting it locally

apache is the most widely use webserver platform, to support php, even now is not working on vista home basics, not even IIS on window vista HomeBasics.

• Uninstall Apache/PHP/MySQL. Disable the UAC. Google how to do it. Re-install.
• Make sure the file 'hosts' file in 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc' is not corrupted. If you're using pirated vista, this file is sometimes corrupted. If you're not sure, paste the content of the 'hosts' file here.

dear friend,

here you goes, the way you suggested i have tried, still the same


hosts file
# Copyright © 1993-2006 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost

any error in your apache httpd logs file? Check the folder 'logs' inside your apache httpd installation

checked, i google alot the similir case over the internet, mostly are providing the smae solutions , however there are none of the solution isproven to be 100% working on window vista home basics.

I am out of idea. Sorry.
