Under a Windows 2003 and IIS 6.x installation of PHP, it is interesting to note that by default in most cases, the "DefaultAppPool" for the "Default Web Site" is running under the security context of "Network Service" which maybe too restrictive. This results in a 403: Forbidden error every time you try to access a PHP page. You have several options to remedy the problem: an obvious one is to make it run as the "Local System", but that may be too much power for some administrators' tastes. The other option is at the IIS Manager, go to the computer's "Application Pools" folder, and go to the properties dialog box of the "DefaultAppPool", and then to the "Identity" tab, and select the "Configurable" identity of "IWAM_[COMPUTER_NAME]" as the security context. This will make the application pool run the way it did in the previous versions. This solved the repeated problems of the 403 errors. However, do not forget to give permission to "IUSR_[COMPUTER_NAME]" and "IWAM_[COMPUTER_NAME]" appropriate directory permissions for your web directories as stated above. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+39222 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+39222&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+39222&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
