I have installed php5 and I would like the web server to work with it, but all I get is "HTTP 500 - Internal Server error". I have heard that php5 is very buggy, but I wanted to use MySQL 4.1 and that seems to require php5.

I have set CGI Interpreter to the correct php.exe path.
I have set CGI paths to /cgi-bin and /*.php.

What do I more have to do to make it work?

If you are using php5, then you will need to use "php-cgi.exe" instead of "php.exe"

also MySQL 4.1 seems to require the use of the MySQLi php functions.

remember too guys that you must make sure your php.ini file is in order if you screw it up it doesnt matter how well configured your server is for php your scripts will crap out on you.

What's funny is your comment about making sure the php.ini is in order when you are using the php.exe as the interpreter. Especially since the PHP website manual distinctly says that the php.exe is a CLI and used only for scripting.

You sure you aren't using version 4?

Use version four, it's the best and it is the most suggested.

PHP 5 is new and still probably has a lot of bugs... i'd hold off on 5. I still use 4.3.9 for the reason that its a bit older and many bugs have been flourished out.
