Re: install for dummies?

I know this is not the question you asked, but in my experience, PHP runs much much better under Apache than IIS. Perhaps you should consider using Apache. (I used to run both IIS 5 and IIS 6 with PHP and it was terribly slow. I installed Apache for Windows and it is 1000% better.) Anyway, there is some good stuff here, especially if you scroll down and read some of the user feedback. http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.iis.php Lance "George Pitcher" <george.pitcher@ingenta.com> wrote in message news:HHEIKBOENJPJNLHFCCCCCEBMCIAA.george.pitcher@ingenta.com... > > Hi, after using PHP for ages, my laptop died on me and I've been trying to > get PHP active on a new W2K machine running IIS5. > > I've tried both the installer and the binary (both as CGI and ISAPI) with no > success. > > I've copied the php4isapi.dll file along with php.ini to winnt\system32, > tried just about any conceivable option in the IS manager configuration and > the best I can get is to se my code being displayed (phpinfo();) > > Any suggestions before I head for my train to Edinburgh at 4pm? > > Cheers > > George in Oxford > > >
