note 44693 added to install.windows.iis

If you use IIS6 you have to add a new Webextension for PHP to work, otherwise you will get a "404"-Page if you try to point your browser to a "*.php" file. In order to do this you have to open the IIS-management console and open the "local computer". Under "webextensions" you will find allready a list with different extensions all being blocked by default. To get PHP to work you have to manually add a new webextension. I only have a german version of IIS in front of me so forgive me if i translate the buttons wrongly. Click on "New webextension". Enter any name you like for your new extension. Click on "Add..." and then on "Search...". If you would like to add the DLL just browse to your PHP-directory and you will find the php5ts.dll. If you search for the php-cgi.exe you have to change the filetype at the bottom to "CGI-Exe-Files". Only after changing the filetype you can see the php-cgi.exe file and choose it for the extension. If you check the checkbox at the bottom of the "New extension" Window it will allow the newly added extension to be executed. Certainly you can change the status any time you want by clicking on "Allow". Only after that procedure you will be able to get in touch with PHP-files. sincerely Juergen Sommer ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.iis.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+44693 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+44693&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+44693&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
