RE: [PHP-WIN] PHP info can't find MySql with IIS web server

I disagree with this. I find the web platform installer to be inconsistent at times, and I for one prefer to know exactly how my system is configured. I never could get the WPI to work for PHP at all (works ok with other application services.

It will install everything you need in one go and relies on windows.php.net binaries (it uses our installer but passes the right options directly).
