PHP5 - Having trouble installing PHP 5, seemingly simple pro

Hello all,

I am trying to set up a server and database using PHP, MySQL, and Apache.

I have Apache installed correctly and am currently trying to install PHP5

I am following this tutorial for the installation:
http://www.sebastiansulinski.co.uk/tuto ... windows_xp

When I try to restart Apache on my computer, I get this message:

hhttpd.exe: Could not open configuration file C:/webserver/conf/httpd.conf: the system cannot find the path specified.

My question is where, as in what file do I specify where the configuration file is located?

Thanks,
NewWebDesigner

As far as I recall (I am doing this from memory) Apache has set locations in which it hunts for it's config file. Probably the best bet is to put it in the same directory as the executable and try that. I'm assuming your exectutable is in C:/webserver ?
