PHP-Apache Alias confusion

[rchardon]

Struggling with use of alias: (see 3.)
1.defined in httpd.conf: ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php"
2.in php.ini: extension=php_mysqli.dll
3. Warning in Apache log: PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'C:/PHP/ext\\php_mysql.dll' - The specified procedure could not be found.\r\n in Unknown on line 0
4. "php_mysql.dll" at "C:\PHP\ext\php_mysql.dll
System  Windows NT RCHARDONXP 5.1 build 2600 
Server API  Apache 2.0 Handler
Loaded Configuration File  C:\PHP\php.ini 
Several, inconsistent sources have not improved things.  You folks seem to be able to help. Thanks...

You probably want to make sure that both:
extension=php_mysqli.dll
extension=php_mysql.dll

...are uncommented under php.ini; as #3 is talking about the latter.

There are also some old Guides here that might help you with setting up PHP as an Apache module...

And If you are going to use PHP CGI, its much better to just do this:

Code:

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/php/cgi-bin/"

<Directory "C:/php/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Create directory: C:\php\cgi-bin and put your php scripts in there. Make sure they have the correct 'shebang' line.
