How to update Apache to latest version 2.2.23

Hi all,

I am in the process of updating my PHP and Apache versions as the links on the WAMP home page are not up to date.

I have successfully managed to update my PHP to version 5.3.13.

I have downloaded the latest version of Apache 2.2.23 and there is no .exe in the bin folder, as far as I am aware the wampserver.conf file needs to point to an executable in the bin folder, am I wrong?

So my question is how to I integrate Apache in to WAMP, does it work in the same way PHP version does? I.E. being able to switch between version via the tray icon?

Thanks in advance

OK update, I have got Apache into WAMP and can now toggle between versions in the tray icon manager. Now when I try to select the latest version I am receiving this error -

Could not execute menu item (internal error) [Exception] Could not execute run action:The system cannot find the file specified

Hi,

I can send you a copy of a HowTo I was working on. Its not totally complete but I think it does cover the steps you have probably not done. Check your Private Messages.

That worked, great thanks. The path httpd.conf is in fact - C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.23\conf

not C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.23\bin\conf

Thanks you so much for your help, i can now stop pulling my hair out and now start developing!!

Hey there - any chance you can send me the manual you are writing as well? I seem to be stuck also.

Thanks,
Chris
