    2. At the real beginning of the file add the directory of the php.ini file. PHPIniDir "C:/php5" (see Fig 1).Remember to use slash forward in the Apache conf file.
    3. Find LoadModule section and at the beginning of the LoadModule list add LoadModule php5_module "C:/php5/php5apache2_2.dll". (See Fig 2)

    5.  Open a new document in Notepad and type <?php phpinfo(); ?> , then save it in C:\WebServer\Apache2.2\htdocs as test.php,change the type of file from .txt to All Type before you save it.Then go to your browser and open this file by typing http://localhost/test.php in the address bar.If everything is ok you should see the PHP info page on your screen.If it fails,go back and review all the steps paying attention to any detail explained in this tutorial.Consider that a simple white space more or less may cause the failure of the entire configuration.

     A nice article this is and following it step by step, i was able to finally get Apache to run on my system running Windows Vista Business. But then, to enable Apache run php scripts properly, this needs to be done: from the c:\php5 folder, copy these .dll files (php5apache2_2.dll, php5apache2_2_filter.dll, php5apache_hooks.dll, php5ts_2.dll) and put them in the apache installation folder (C:\WebServer\bin\)
