How to run PHP 4 and PHP 5 at the same time on Apache for Windows

A great article for running both PHH4 and PHP5 at the same time. :)

Article Source

"

Whilst the majority of web applications are hosted on Linux, most developers use Windows. Installing Apache, PHP, and MySQL on your Windows PC is recommended and has become much easier. However, few developers can test their pages in PHP 4 and PHP 5 on the same machine at the same time - but it is possible…

Environment overview

This article will not describe every step in detail, but it should give you enough information to create your own multi-PHP web development environment:

1. We’ll define the domains http://test/ and http://test4/. Both will navigate to the same php files located in C:\WebPages\


2. PHP 5 will be installed as an Apache SAPI module and will be used for pages in the domain http://test/.


3. PHP 4 will be installed as a CGI binary. PHP files will be executed using PHP 4 by changing the domain to http://test4/ or accessing via port 81, e.g. http://test:81/

Note that the latest versions of PHP 5 run very slowly if you use the CGI binary. Defining it as a module solves this issue.

Installation ingredients

The freeware/open source software you’ll need is:

• Apache HTTP server for Windows. Stick with version 2.0.x - although 2.2 is available, PHP doesn’t work with it yet.
  


• The latest PHP 4 and PHP 5 Windows binaries. Although installers are available, I’d recommend you download the ZIP packages.


• Optionally, a copy of the Windows MySQL database.


• A decent text editor - I recommend Notepad++.
  

Both Apache and MySQL provide Windows installers, so just run them. All going well, you should then be able to navigate to http://localhost/ in your browser.

Extract PHP 4 to C:\php\php4 and PHP 5 to C:\php\php5. Follow the instructions for configuring your php.ini file, but ignore the Apache setup details for now - we’ll cover that below. One setting that may catch you out is extension_dir - for PHP 5 use:
extension_dir = "C:\php\php5\ext"

and for PHP 4 use:
extension_dir = "C:\php\php4\extensions\"

You can now uncomment any extensions you wish to use, e.g. extension=php_mysql.dll in PHP 5’s php.ini.

Windows system setup

Now all the files are in place, we’ll define the local domains test and test4. This is done by editing the hosts file, located in %WINDOWS%/system32/drivers/etc. Add the following lines:
127.0.0.1 test
127.0.0.1 test4

You can update your system using the command ‘nbtstat -R’, but you’ll need a reboot soon so don’t worry about it!

Now go to the Control Panel, open System, click the Advanced tab, and click Environment Variables. In the System variables section, click “Path” in the list followed by Edit. Add “;C:\php\php4;C:\php\php5″ to the end of the Variable value line.

Now reboot to make sure the settings are applied.

Configuring Apache

The Apache configuration file is normally located at %PROGRAMS%\Apache Group\Apache2\conf\httpd.conf You’ll need to locate and edit the following settings.

Set the server to listen on port 80 (the default) and port 81:
Listen 80
Listen 81

Ensure your root folder is set correctly (note the forward slash):
DocumentRoot "C:/WebPages"

Add php files to the directory index, e.g.
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

Just before the Virtual Hosts section, define PHP 5 as a SAPI module:
# PHP5 module
LoadModule php5_module “c:/php/php5/php5apache2.dll”
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
PHPIniDir “C:/php/php5″

Finally, we’ll define the localhost, test, and test4 virtual domain settings for ports 80 and 81. Where PHP 4 is required (test4 domain or port 81), it is defined as a CGI binary that will override the PHP5 module.

NameVirtualHost *:80
NameVirtualHost *:81

# localhost:80 - PHP5
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot C:/WebPages
</VirtualHost>

# localhost:81 - PHP4
<VirtualHost *:81>

DocumentRoot C:/WebPages
ScriptAlias /php/ “c:/php/php4/”
Action application/x-httpd-php4 “/php/php.exe”
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php4 .php
</VirtualHost>

# test:80 - PHP5
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test
DocumentRoot C:/WebPages
</VirtualHost>

# test:81 - PHP4
<VirtualHost *:81>
ServerName test
DocumentRoot C:/WebPages
ScriptAlias /php/ “c:/php/php4/”
Action application/x-httpd-php4 “/php/php.exe”
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php4 .php

</VirtualHost>

# test4:80 - PHP4
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test4
DocumentRoot C:/WebPages
ScriptAlias /php/ “c:/php/php4/”
Action application/x-httpd-php4 “/php/php.exe”
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php4 .php
</VirtualHost>

# test4:81 - PHP4
<VirtualHost *:81>
ServerName test4
DocumentRoot C:/WebPages
ScriptAlias /php/ “c:/php/php4/”
Action application/x-httpd-php4 “/php/php.exe”
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php4 .php
</VirtualHost>

You’ll now need to restart Apache. It may be best to use “net stop apache2″ followed by “net start apache2″ on the command line. This will allow you to see any configuration error messages, but several other helpful tools are provided in the Apache program group.

Testing your environment

Create a new file phpinfo.php in C:\WebPages\. Edit the file and add the line:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Save it, then visit the following addresses in your browser:

• http://test/phpinfo.php - should show PHP 5


• http://test4/phpinfo.php - should show PHP 4


• http://test:81/phpinfo.php - should show PHP 4

And that’s all there is to it!

Obviously, you can now define further virtual domains - perhaps one for every website you create. "

How to get toshiba satellite m200 built in camera to work

A very detail article that i found from the Toshiba Forum.

"
SOLUTION FOR Chicony USB 2.0 CAMERA problem in TOSHIBA

A205-S7464 with Windows Vista Home Premium (English)

(be patient with my poor english, please)

The problem was in the .INF file of the camera driver named "casflr.inf". The "ClassGUID" is incorrect to register the driver. We need correct then manually.

The Problem:

1) Windows Vista Home Premium (ENGLISH) installed

2) After install OS, in Control Panel, Device Manager, appears under Another Devices / Chicony USB 2.0 Camera (to install a driver)

3) Trying to install or update the driver by Web doesn't work and trying by browser my computer for device driver.../ Let me pick from a list of device driver... USB Device... etc... doesn't work too.

4) After Installing the last software device driver from Toshiba Support Page:

http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/downloads/util_camera_26505A.exe

you have a error message, something like "Camera does not work. Restart camera or computer"...

5) And after you installed the Software Driver from Toshiba, trying update the driver on Device Manager, by browser my computer for device driver.../ Let me pick from a list of device driver... USB Device... choosing one of the Chicony USB 2.0 Camera we have a error message like...

"The Register Class for this device were incorrect" (may be different...)

If you have all this "problems" in sequence... you need to do 3 things. One in Windows Vista Register file, other in .INF file of the camera driver and them update the driver again. It's easy.

The Steps...

1) In Start Search digit "regedt32.exe", run the program to edit register.

2) Find this key below:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\USB\VID_04F2&PID_B008&MI_00

or

In Edit Menu, click in Find, digit "Chicony USB 2.0 Camera", press enter

you will find a sub-key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\USB\VID_04F2&PID_B008&MI_00\6&298da7b3&0&0000

3) Immediately above of the first KEY, you have another KEY:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\USB\VID_04F2&PID_B008

with another sub-key \SN0001, click them.

4) Find in the right window the GWord named "ClassGUID", click them twice and Copy the value in this window (in my computer is {36fc9e60-c465-11cf-8056-444553540000} ), COPY THEN...

Here is the correct class ID to register the device driver for Chicony USB 2.0 Camera. Now we are going to correct it in .INF file. Remember that we had a incorrect class register error message trying to update the driver before.

You need installed the last version of Toshiba Support Software Driver for Chicony USB 2.0 Camera. In my case I download this in:

http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/downloads/util_camera_26505A.exe

5) Then Open the install folder of the software "C:\Program Files\Camera Assistant Software for Toshiba\driver\32bit\" and edit the file "casflr.inf". Just Open to Edit it.

In firsts line you have this:

Version
signature="$CHICAGO$"
Class=Image
ClassGUID={6bdd1fc6-810f-11d0-bec7-08002be2092f}
Provider=%cec%
CatalogFile=casflr.cat
DriverVer=04/24/2007,6.2.208.0424
;LayoutFile=layout.inf

6) REPLACE the line or COMMENT it (put ";" in the beginning of the line) that contain "ClassGUID":

;ClassGUID={6bdd1fc6-810f-11d0-bec7-08002be2092f}

7) Now put a new line after the older line with the correct class ID that we found in the register

ClassGUID={36fc9e60-c465-11cf-8056-444553540000}

You will have something like this:

Version
signature="$CHICAGO$"
Class=Image
;ClassGUID={6bdd1fc6-810f-11d0-bec7-08002be2092f}
ClassGUID={36fc9e60-c465-11cf-8056-444553540000}
Provider=%cec%
CatalogFile=casflr.cat
DriverVer=04/24/2007,6.2.208.0424
;LayoutFile=layout.inf

Press Crtl+S -> Save the file.

8) Now repeat the update driver steps in Control Panel / Device Manager / Another Devices... Chicony USB 2.0 Camera... right mouse click... Update Driver... Browser my computer for device driver.../ Let me pick from a list of device driver... USB Device...

Will appear 2 or 3 devices to choose, one of these do not have an icon before it and the name is different like "Chicony USB Camera", these is the correct one. Click then! Install it.

An error message of "non sign driver" will appear. Click in Continue.

If a fail message appears, REPEAT THE UPDATE STEPS AGAIN.

Just It!!

Now we have a new "Universal Serial Bus controllers" named Chicony USB 2.0 Camera working!
