#45776 [NEW]: apache2 crashes unless i have php5ts.dll in %windir%

From:             sskaje at gmail dot com
Operating system: Windows XP sp3
PHP version:      5.3CVS-2008-08-10 (snap)
PHP Bug Type:     Reproducible crash
Bug description:  apache2 crashes unless i have php5ts.dll in %windir%

Description:
------------
Windows xp + apache 2.2.9 + php 5.3.0-dev

In httpd.conf, i have following configuration for php: 
[code]
# For PHP 5 do something like this:
LoadModule php5_module "h:/server/php53/php5apache2_2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

# configure the path to php.ini
PHPIniDir "h:/server/php53"
[/code]

On php5.3, i have to copy php53\php5ts.dll to %windir%. Otherwise there is
a popup error when i have windows started which has apache crashed on
starting up(i have apache2 installed as a system service and have it
running automatically ), and when i tried to start apache again with 'httpd
-k start', a similar error was popup-ed.

So, %windir%\php5ts.dll of php5.3 seems to be necessary, but when i have
php5ts.dll cp-ed to \windows and then apache running, i can remove
%windir%\php5ts.dll as i want.

Hmm, that makes me feel that the php5ts.dll under %windir% is not
necessary as it looks like. So i took a test:
[code]
C:\WINDOWS>
C:\WINDOWS>move php5ts.dll _php5ts.dll

C:\WINDOWS>echo > php5ts.dll

C:\WINDOWS>dir *php5*
 Çý¶¯Æ÷ C ÖеľíûÓбêÇ©¡£

2008-08-10  16:05                21 php5ts.dll
2008-07-31  23:42         5,251,128 _php5ts.dll
               2 ¸öÎļþ      5,251,149 ×Ö½Ú
               0 ¸öĿ¼ 20,189,646,848 ¿ÉÓÃ×Ö½Ú

C:\WINDOWS>type php5ts.dll
ECHO ´¦ÓÚ´ò¿ª×´Ì¬¡£

C:\WINDOWS>httpd -k restart
Warning: DocumentRoot [H:/SVN/newborn/pages] does not exist

C:\WINDOWS>
[/code]
It works normally as it should be.

The conclusion is, i dont really have a php5ts.dll copied to %windir%, but
i have, at least, a file named php5ts.dll there, no matter what is in it,
if i wanna my apache+php5.3 work
