To get php 5.2.5 to work in IIS on Windows Server 2003 1. Install PHP choose the IIS ISAPI webserver option on the first panel of the php install 2. Make sure your website is accessible for example make sure it works with html files 3. Now startup IIS and click on the Web Sevice Extensions folder icon, you should see the PHP Hypertext Processor installled and enabled. Click on the 'All Unknown ISAPI Extensions' and then click the 'Allow' button. 4. Now you need to give the internet users access to the php executable directory ie c:\php or c:\program files\php by using internet explorer and right clicking the php directory and choosing Properties/Security/Add...Now in the 'Select Users or Groups' dialog that appears in the 'Enter the Object Names to select' type in the name of the internet guest account (ie IUSER_TEMPLATE in my case)...click the check names to make sure you got it right and click the OK button. Finally in the PHP properties dialog click the Internet Guest Account icon and set the permissions to be 'Read & Execute, List Folder Contents and Read'. Click ok and now it should work. Create a very simple php file and test it... If you get the 404 file not found error then the ISAPI extensions are not allowed (#3 above) If you get a blank page then the ISAPI extensions are probably setup right but you need to give the internet user access rights to the php executable directory (#4 above) ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.35 Probable Submitter: 208.109.83.61 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.installation.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/82595 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82595/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82595/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82595/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82595/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82595/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82595/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82595 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/82595 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
