I meant that the docs in the binary distribution were not really up to scratch for new users, a lot of people have been having problems with common stuff such as associating a different file extension with PHP (Even though it mentions it in the manual online). Even though I would like some more info somewhere about building on Win32 I don't think it should be bundled with the source. - Karl - -----Original Message----- From: James Moore [mailto:james@phpuk.org] Sent: 22 August 2000 13:14 To: Karl Austin; Php-Qa Mailinglist Subject: RE: [PHP-QA] PHP Distributions There is a document from Zeev included in the source detailing in more depth on how to Install on windows (It Covers IIS and other sapi's i more detail). Personally when first setting up with IIS filter it help massivly. Depending on feedback I can revamp the install.txt to include the relevant parts of that. I do not feel building on Win32 should be covered and I question wether we need to put the IIS stuff in as it will encourage people to use an sapi that isnt 100% stable, but then again maybe a warning in the file would be best. Also maybe I should look at the install docs on php.net Last time I looked at them they were OK but didnt cover some server setups, I saw that rasmus has commited some stuff to it recently (I think it was just an upgrade from PHP3 to PHP4 notation) but also if people feel these docs are not up to scratch I can revamp those too.
