#23907 [Com]: Need additional installation step for IIS 6.0 / Windows Server 2003

ID: 23907 Comment by: palash at cargofusion dot com Reported By: bryn at mrpath dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: Windows Server 2003 PHP Version: 4.3.2 New Comment: well i find this lines on install.txt -------------------------------------- Note that this version does *NOT* install any extensions or server api versions of PHP. --------------------------------------------------- -palash Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-28 13:26:30] nospam at teddyb dot com This worked great to solve my problem, thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-27 13:25:00] bryn at mrpath dot com So, I think it's specific to windows server 2003 due to being preconfigured for "security". Having said that, I don't think you can get IIS 6 for other platforms (not speaking with knowledge here) since win2k3 comes with IIS6 I doubt many people are going to be running other versions of IIS. It is specific to IIS though, as win2k3 won't be able to prevent Apache from serving up php. Regarding if it applies to ISAPI, I don't know. I vaguely recall thinking that it might apply only to cgi only to be surprised that it was censoring ISAPI as well. I'll try and look in to this when I get back from vacation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-27 13:12:58] philip@php.net The following article explains how to do it for both ISAPI and CGI, this type of information needs to live in the PHP manual: http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/dreamweaver/articles/php_iis.html Various user comments also refer to this type of information. AFAICT, this new information is specific to IIS 5 and above and we can add a IIS 5 or newer subsection here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.iis.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-27 12:49:30] martin dot richter at inka dot de Thanks for this information ... helped a lot ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-27 12:08:05] philip@php.net Is this specific to IIS 6+ or Windows Server 2003 or the combination or ...? Maybe someone else here is familiar with the topic but I certainly am not. And I take it this type of additional step only applies to CGI and not ISAPI module? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
