note 44499 added to install.iis

How I installed PHP5-final on IIS on Win2K-AS: Extracted the zip file. Installed with the installation file. CGI doesn't seem to work: I always get an error 400 in my browser. Changing php-cgi.exe into php5isapi.dll in IIS worked. I do recommend always restarting IIS if you change anything (that includes changes in the php.ini): C:\>net stop iisadmin c:\>net start w3svc Now the interesting part: I did a phpinfo() and it said it searches for php.ini in C:\WINNT, that's indeed my systemroot's dir. It was clear the php.ini file wasn't read! I put the php.ini file in C:\WINNT\system32 and now it's read! (I did not put the dll files in the system32 dir!). You can test to see if the php.ini file is read with a phpinfo() if it says at the top "Configuration File (php.ini) Path C:\WINNT\system32\php.ini" (so including php.ini itself!) Another tip: If you can't get phpinfo() to work in your browser, put it in a small php file and use a command line: C:\php>php-cgi phpinfo.php > output.html and examine the output.html file. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.iis.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+44499 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+44499&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+44499&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
