Re: Authentication IIS 6 (win server 2003) & PHP

I solved the problem... maybe not with the best posible solution, but it worked. 1) configure everything with php.exe instead of phpisapi.dll 2) copy a working php.ini file to your x:\windows directory. (For me it was from an XP installation) this php file had "cgi.force_redirect = 0" and solved the most problems. We are installing on a IIS and if we read the comment of this parameter we see ; **You CAN safely turn this off for IIS, in fact, you MUST.** And like by magic :o) everything worked fine. I hope it will help someone.
