I changed laragon php version to 8 and after that apache won't run Here is the error:

Service apache can not start C:/laragon/bin/apache/httpd-2.4.46vs16/conf.... Syntax error on line 2 Api module structure php8_module error

Solution

  • First of all, update your Apache version.

    After go to c:\laragon\etc\apacke2\mode_php.conf

    change: LoadModule php8_module to LoadModule php_module

    The overall change:

    From this:

    # This file is auto-generated, so please keep it intact.
    LoadModule php8_module "C:/laragon/bin/php/php-8.2.0-Win32-vs16-x64/php8apache2_4.dll"
    PHPIniDir "C:/laragon/bin/php/php-8.2.0-Win32-vs16-x64"
    <IfModule mime_module>
        AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    </IfModule>
    

    To this:

    # This file is auto-generated, so please keep it intact.
    LoadModule php_module "C:/laragon/bin/php/php-8.2.0-Win32-vs16-x64/php8apache2_4.dll"
    PHPIniDir "C:/laragon/bin/php/php-8.2.0-Win32-vs16-x64"
    <IfModule mime_module>
        AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    </IfModule>
    

    so php8_module will be php_module
