hi! It seems like everytime I turn around lately, I'm opening up another can of worms and I sure don't like what I just read.
this book: Setting Up Lamp (Getting Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP Working Together) Sybex/Wiley ISBN 0-7821-4337-7
Page 197 to quote "Which Version of Apache to Use": Choosing your Apache version is something that should be taken from the correct perspective. Apache 1.3 is proven to be stable and, most importantly, compatible with PHP. Apache 2.0 is stable; however, there have been multiple problems with PHP compatibility. Making Apache 2.0 and PHP work together is as predictable as flipping a coin. You will never know for sure whether the configuration will work properly and you might be faced with in-depth troubleshooting and problem solving trying to find out why they will not cooperate.

My suggestion would be to find a fireplace and start a fire with that book. We use Apache 2.0 and PHP for some fairly extensive intranet based applications. Problems have only been a issue with the PHP coding, not the interaction of PHP and Apache. Both are rock solid.
