Trying to get a fresh install of Apache (2.2.17) and PHP (5.3.4 VC6 x86 Thread Safe) running on Windows XP Sp2 ..
Apache installs and runs fine, until I install PHP .. I then try to restart the service and it crashes in Windows...
Here's what I get in the error.log ... Help! (FYI - don't want to use WAMP)
