Re: 64-bit PHP binaries

I am Starting to have a senaly suspicion that fascgi is not working correctly. Is there a way I can test this and where should the dlls be located for it? ""Morris"" <morne@afridata.net> wrote in message news:62.70.09468.668497B4@pb1.pair.com...

I could not do the following as IIS is not serving the pages: <?php echo 'This is my first PHP program'; ?> Please name the above file as 'test.php' in your webroot folder (PHP SERVER variable _SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT]") and save it. I will be using 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot' as this is my webroot folder and also the place where my PHP_SERVER variable _SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] is set. When I run the following command I get the error below: C:\>"C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\php-cgi.exe" -v PHP 5.2.12 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Dec 16 2009 16:57:38) Copyright (c) 1997-2009 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2009 Zend Technologies When I run the following command I get the error below: C:\>"C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\php-cgi.exe" C:\webcontent\test.mysite.com\test.php X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.12 Content-type: text/html This is my first PHP program When I ran the above two commands I got the error "The program can't start because msvcr71.dll is missing from you computer. Try re-installing the program to fix this problem." and fixed it by searching for the missing file and copying it to the c:\windows\syswow64 directory. After that the error disappeared. I think it is because MSSQL may be enabled in the php.ini file. It is a minor issue so I will not worry about it. When I ping'ed the localhost from the command prompt I received the following which is worrying. It is not configured in the hosts file so why is it resolving like this? C:\>ping localhost Pinging MYSERVERNAME [::1] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from ::1: time<1ms Reply from ::1: time<1ms Reply from ::1: time<1ms Reply from ::1: time<1ms Ping statistics for ::1: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms When I ping the website I configured it resolves the correct IP address. This site can serve asp and html pages. C:\>ping test.mysite.com Pinging test.mysite.com [10.50.0.71] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 10.50.0.71: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 10.50.0.71: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 10.50.0.71: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Reply from 10.50.0.71: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128 Ping statistics for 10.50.0.71: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms I did not go through all the testing for the default site as it does not exist anymore. The site is custom configured and it does serve html and asp pages without problems. When I run "%WINDIR%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe list site" I get the following: SITE "test.mysite.com" (id:7,bindings:http/10.50.0.71:80:test.mysite.com,state:Started) When I run "%WINDIR%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe list vdirs" I get the following: VDIR "test.mysite.com/" (physicalPath:C:\webcontent\test.mysite.com) So far no solution. I personally think it is IIS that does not hand off the php request to the php executable.
