1. Download the installation program
Apache can be downloaded from http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/httpd/binaries/win32/
PHP can be downloaded from http://www.php.net.
Second installation program
1. Apache program installation is relatively simple. What we downloaded from the website is an installation program under Windows. We can directly double-click to run it, so that we can conveniently install Apache in our settled down on my computer.
2. What we need to pay attention to here is that when downloading PHP, you must download the zip package instead of the Installer. Unzip the PHP package we downloaded to the root directory of the C drive, and unzip it The resulting folder is renamed php.
Three configurations
1. It is best to ensure that php5ts.dll is available no matter what interface (CGI or SAPI) is used, so this file must be placed in the Windows path. The best location is the system directory of Windows:
c:windowssystem for Windows 9x/ME
c:winntsystem32 for Windows NT/2000 or c:winnt40system32 for Windows NT/2000 server version
c:windowssystem32 for Windows XP

　2. The next step is to set a valid PHP configuration file, php.ini. The compressed package includes two ini files, php.ini-dist and php.ini-recommended. It is recommended to use php.ini-recommended because this file optimizes the default settings for performance and security.
Copy the selected ini file to a directory where PHP can find it and rename it to php.ini. PHP searches for php.ini in the Windows directory by default:
　3 Copy the selected ini file to %WINDIR% under Windows 9x/ME/XP, usually c:windows.
　Under Windows NT/2000, copy the selected ini file to %WINDIR% or %SYSTEMROOT%, usually c:winnt or c:winnt40 corresponding to the server version.
　4 Settings for PHP in Apache
There are two ways to make PHP work in Apache under Windows. One is using CGI binaries and the other is using Apache module DLL. Either way, you must first stop the Apache server and then edit httpd.conf to configure Apache and PHP to work together.
If we want to use CGI binaries, then we need to insert the following instructions into Apache's httpd.conf configuration file to set up CGI binaries:
PHP is installed into Apache 2.0 in CGI mode:
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"

If we If you want to use PHP as a module of Apache 2.0, you must move php4ts.dll to winnt/system32 (Windows NT/2000) or windows/system32 (Windows XP), overwriting the original file (if any), for PHP 5 , this file is php5ts.dll. Then we need to insert the following two lines into httpd.conf to install our PHP as Apache's PHP-Module:

　 PHP is installed into Apache 2.0 as a module:

; For PHP 4 do something like this:
LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/php4apache2.dll"
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

After this configuration, we have installed our PHP and Apache servers . We can simply test it:

1. Test Apache:

We open the browser and enter localhost in the address bar. If the Apache page can appear, it means that our Apache can work normally. .

2. Test PHP settings:

We can simply write a PHP page. We can use a text editor and enter the following code:

＜html＞
＜head＞
＜title＞
hello
＜/title＞
＜/head＞
＜body＞
＜?php echo "hello,php"; ?＞
＜/body＞
＜/html＞

Then save this file as hello.php and place it in Apache’s htdocs directory (we can also change it in the http.conf file directory), and then enter http://localhost/hello.php in our browser. If hello and php can be displayed correctly, it means that our PHP configuration can work normally.

In this way, we can also design our PHP site in the future
