As I indicated in this thread earlier, I have installed both the x86 and x64 redistributables, as both were missing on the machine. I was getting a similar error with loading the other modules, such
as mod_actions.so until I tried the latest version of Apache (4.63, instead of 4.62).
This is an issue with Windows 11. Everything works fine on Windows 10.

So, I have installed Apache 2.4.63 and this worked, using the default httpd.conf file.
However I have now encountered a new, but similar, error:
C:\Apache24\bin>httpd.exe
httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 188 of C:/Apache24/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load c:/PHP/php5apache2_4.dll into server: The specified module could not be found.
Yes, I do have this .dll in C:\PHP.

The x86 and x64 redistributables were missing, but, after installing them and restarting the machine I still get the same error.

That may be,
I will check.

I have to move my Apache 2.6 installation from a Windows 10 machine to a Windows 11 machine.
I copied the C:\Apache24 folder over to C:\Apache24 on the Win 11 machine.
When I launch Apache on the Win 11 machine, I get this error:
C:\Apache24\bin>httpd.exe
httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 75 of C:/Apache24/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load modules/mod_actions.so into server: The specified module could not be found.
Windows will give this error if a dependency of the .so is not found.
Could you be missing some redistributable runtime?
Have you considered just installing httpd and php under WSL2?
