Zend server CE - Will not load .php file rather downloads it - zend-server

I installed Zend Server CE on Windows 8. When I try to load a .php file in my browser it does not load but downloads the php file instead.
My root for the server is C:\Program Files (x86)\Zend\Apache2\htdocs\
I looked everywhere on the web but there is no documentation.

I would recommend against having your document root in program files because of all the security. Reinstall it outside of program files and it might/will probably work.
How do you invoke the file? You cannot use the full windows path there ie: c:\Zend\apache2\etc.. But probably localhost/yourfile.php or 127.0.0.1/yourfile.php. Can you open zend's interface at localhost:100081?
If you get a internal server error well then it serves php files. Now enable errors in php.ini and find out what is wrong probably some path. You are getting a php error and they are set to not display so you get the server error. That does mean php files are parsed by apache and not downloaded. This question here on so has pretty much what you need to configure.
Just remembered you had the zend-framework tag so you could check in application.ini for error handling settings.

Where can I find httpd.conf file for Apache on my windows?

I am trying to fix one venerability on my production web server(Apache), Venerability is "The HTTP headers sent by the remote web server disclose information that can aid an attacker, such as the server version and technologies used by the web server"
For this I have gone for some solutions , some where I found that to solve the above Venerability we need to edit the httpd.conf file on server but I did not find httpd.conf file in my entire system (using windows 10 os) can any one please let me know hot find that file or how to resolve that Venerability on production ?
You can find httpd.conf in
installed folder ex Apache24
Apache24/conf/httpd.conf
On Windows, I have seen people run Apache from all kinds of weird and wonderful places.
You need to track down where your Apache instance is running from, normally its running as a service on windows. If you open the properties on the service and look at the Path to executable, it should be something similar to the below.
"C:\Program Files\Apache24\bin\httpd.exe" -k runservice
Or it could be
"D:\Some Application\Version\WEB\tool\SOFTS\HTTPD\bin\httpd.exe" -k runservice
Unless there is an -f flag, setting the location of the conf. There will be a "conf" folder at the same level as the "bin" folder regardless of the path. This location is set at compile time so unless you have bespoke version off Apache this should be the location.
If you are struggling to find the service or a launcher that is running Apache. You can use WMI with a WQL query to look for processes which are called httpd.exe and get its executable path.
wmic process WHERE name="httpd.exe" GET ExecutablePath
In Xampp Control panel, in apache row, click on "config" button and then you see the term Apache(httpd.conf).

IIS is not allowing to access a javascript file

i have a web application. while running in my system integration environment, i get an issue while accessing my javascript file or an image file in my particular folder.
When i tried putting the complete URL in the browser, it gave me a following exception -
HTTP Error 404.2 Not Found
The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the ISAPI and CGI Restriction list settings on the webserver.
I googled this exception and found that i need to allow ASP.NET 4.0, 2.0, etc in the IIS's ISAPI & CGi Restrictions.. however, they were already in allow mode.
What next should i lookup?
OK,, i got the answer
the HTTP Handler in the applicatin's web.config file was trying to execute via a aspnet_isapi.dll located in Framework64 folder of .NET Framework.. the target machine however is a 32 bit and i dont have this Framework64 folder on it..
i changed the path of the executable to point to the 32 bit's folder and it wrked :)

How to allow dll files uploads in wamp server

I'm using WampServer64 and I'm trying to upload some dll files to
my website without. However I'm not having any luck, they are getting blocked for some reason. Does anyone know why and how to solve this problem?
The solution is to change the settings in php.ini located in
apache folder and not in the one located in the php folder
to check if the changes have been made run phpinfo();

How do I stop WANdisco Subversion conflicting with Apache24?

EDIT:
I did find out a few key things:
In Windows 7, (Maybe other OS's?) There is a hosts file. That hosts file controls custom local URL addresses. You can define a custom name for a local host URL. For example: mywebserver.localhost. If you want your browser to serve local files from your computer with a custom URL name, you can set that in the hosts file. The hosts file is located in Drive:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc. If you don't have permissions to write to that file, you'll get an error message stating the the file isn't found, or something like that when you try to save the file.
Apache has a conf folder with a file in it named: httpd.conf. That controls the configuration directives for Apache.
If you want to link PHP to Apache, PHP has a PHP.ini file that needs to be configured.
END EDIT
I installed WANdisco Subversion, for Windows7 32bit (Link for reference)
Subversion - Version Control
and it installed with APACHE 2.2 in a sub-folder.
The only reason I install Subversion, was that a Google help page:
Install the Google Client Library for PHP
stated that it was required to download the source code needed for the Google API PHP Client Library.
Then I installed PHP and Apache 2.4 in their own folders, and configured the C:\Apache24\conf\httpd.conf file to point to a local webserver. (Along with some other configurations)
YouTube install Apache on Windows 7
The path in my operating system is:
C:\Program Files\WANdisco\Subversion\Apache2\bin;C:\Program
Files\WANdisco\Subversion;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:Python27;C:Python27\Scripts;C:\php
The localhost in my web browser will load an HTML file from the Apache set up in the Subversion Directory, but not from the C:\Apache24 directory.
How am I going to keep both Apache installations, and get the localhost to load HTML files from someplace other than the C:\Program Files\WANdisco\Subversion directory? I'm tempted to just delete the Apache folder from WANdisco\Subversion. Or just unistall the whole Subversion software. I'll probably never use it again.
Sounds to me like you don't need a server install of Subversion, but only the client.
I'd suggest uninstalling the version you have an installing the Client only download, which won't come with Apache httpd.

Apache doesn't load PHP MySQL extension but IIS does

I have a really irritating problem with PHP on Windows Server 2008 R2. IIS and Apache are running on the same machine (Apache is embedded with another product and it being there is not my choice).
IIS is configured to be able to use multiple versions of PHP, and none of the PHP versions on there were installed with the Windows installer (so php.exe does not exist in the path).
Apache uses one particular version of PHP (5.2.5 Thread-safe - again I can't change this as a 3rd-party application has PHP extensions compiled against this version).
If I check phpinfo() in my Apache site it doesn't have an entry for MySQL, even though php_mysql.dll is enabled in php.ini and it exists in the \ext directory. If I (temporarily) add this version of PHP (same directory, same php.ini) to IIS and set up a test site with phpinfo() it correctly lists MySQL. I know this is not just some strange issue with phpinfo because I have a MySQL-based PHP site running in Apache and it fails with Call to undefined function mysql_connect()
It was suggested that I copy libmysql.dll from the PHP directory to C:\Windows\System32 but this made no difference. As there are multiple versions of PHP on the server I suppose it's possible that the wrong version of libmysql.dll is being loaded, but the PATH doesn't include any directories containing libmysql.dll.
IIS and Apache are looking at exactly the same PHP installation, php.ini, and ext directory, but only IIS can load the MySQL extension. Apache is on the default System account as it looks like System has access to all the DLLs.
The Apache logs say nothing about any DLLs failing to load. I'm logging PHP errors in the event log but nothing is reported about those extensions.
After Googling around the issue I found other suddenly-occurring issues in PHP on Windows server but the usual resolutions - rebuilding php.ini, restarting IIS, restarting the server - haven't helped.
Any suggestions on where to look next are much appreciated!
I know this might not ultimately answer your question but, did you try configuring Apache to execute PHP through FastCGI (mod_fcgid) and use the same binary as IIS does ?
I know you are using mod_php, but calling it via FastCGI will abstract PHP from the webserver process. If extensions are loading fine under PHP called via FastCGI, there is no reason it won't work on a different web server.
Also, I personally beleive that it is a better idea this way since PHP is only called when a *.php file is requested. This way, Apache will not load PHP in memory for every request, which will give you better performance for serving static files, for example.
Update
To do this, you need to download mod_fcgid from http://httpd.apache.org/mod_fcgid/, load the module in your Apache configuration this way,
LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so
And then, just specify what binary you want to call when PHP pages are requested:
AddHandler fcgid-script .php
FcgidWrapper "c:/php/php-cgi.exe" .php
Then, files with a .php extension will now be executed by the PHP FastCGI wrapper. Just be sure to specify the same php-cgi.exe binary as IIS is using.
All extensions that were previously available in IIS should now be available in Apache since the PHP installation behind is the same in both environment.
Keep me updated.
1.- check php.ini path in phpinfo.
2.- add php folder to the windows path
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm
3.- add directive PHPINIDir to apache conf
http://php.net/manual/en/install.windows.apache2.php
4.- uncomment mysql extension in respective php.ini
5.- reload apache
6.- check mysql extension in phpinfo
and please don't copy any files to system32
You will generally need different library dlls for the different versions of PHP you are running. It's best to keep these in their own directories.
There's a few different things that could cause a module not to load, including the PHP version whether you're running a thread-safe or not-thread-safe version and also if the binaries were compiled as VC6 or VC9 †. Usually the easiest way to debug if you're getting any module loading errors is running php.exe from the command line as it will spit out any startup errors (also ensure these are enabled in your php.ini and you're loading the correct php.ini file when you do so).
† IIRC VC6/VC9 is to do with which version of Visual Studio PHP was compiled with.
Ultimately this issue came down to a missing PATH reference. Although IIS doesn't seem to require PHP or PHP modules to exist in the path it seems that Apache (or perhaps my version of PHP?) does. I am lucky in that I only need to run one version of PHP outside IIS, as I have no idea what would happen if I had multiple Apache instances referencing different versions of PHP and multiple PHP directories in the path - presumably one would always fail.
So far it looks like adding Apache's version of PHP to the path hasn't affected the IIS versions of PHP, but I will swear loudly if it suddenly does.
