Uwamp - Php 5++ run well but stop and not working after change to Php 7

Question

Uwamp Version: 3.1.0
Installation : USB Drive

---

I just download Uwamp 3.1.0 today and everything run well but apache will stop if I switch to php 7. It happen only if I switch to php 7, and when I switch it back to php 5, apache work fine..

The error I get from Uwamp:

httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 166 of G:/uwamp/bin/apache/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load G:/uwamp/bin/php/php-7.0.3/php7apache2_4.dll into server: The specified module could not be found.

In httpd.config line 166

LoadModule php7_module "G:/uwamp/bin/php/php-7.1.0-Win32-VC14-x86/php7apache2_4.dll"

I found the httpd error asked by someone in this forum but got no answer and the different is the version of Uwamp and Php.

Thank you.

Answer 1

As written on http://www.uwamp.com/fr/?page=download :

For PHP 7.x+ you need : Download VC14 2015 vc_redist.x86.exe

You can install multiple versions of Redistributable for Visual Studio and you can install both version x86 and x64. UwAmp use x86 version to keep compatibility with older PHP version.

ManuDevil, thank you for the answer..

Yup Visual C++ Redistributable 2015 is needed to run php 7.

Before use UwAmp you must install Visual C++ Redistributable x86 version vc_redist.x86.exe. This is a PHP requirement.

For PHP older version you need : Visual C++ Redistributable 2005

For PHP 5.3 you need : Visual C++ Redistributable 2008

For PHP 5.4+ you need : Visual C++ Redistributable 2012

For PHP 7.x+ you need : Visual C++ Redistributable 2015
