Headsup on php 4.2.3 installer....

[Jethro]

On a Win2k Prof box running IIS it don't work. The php.ini file is totally not happening. Mucked around with it all sunday and couldn't get the thing running. If anyone has a copy of the 4.1.2 windows installed would be much obliged to ya.

Am currently testing firepages phpdev423 to see if that is a solution, but am unsure if IIS can co-exist with Apache (which is installed by phpdev423).. will report back team:(

Okay got it rocking.

Give ISUR_computername full access to the uploadtemp directory, and php.exe and php4ts.dll.


Then

Go into Control Panel -> Admin Options -> Add/Remove Software

Select the Upgrade Install Windows components, IIS and indexing will be ticked, click ok and away it goes for a couple of minutes.

You should then be able to view php pages :)

You can make IIS and Apache co-exist by telling Apache that it's on a port number other than 80, I tend to use a number like 8000 for convenience, this is done in httpd.conf by changing listen 80 to listen 8000 and restarting Apache

Thanks Steve, was thinking in terms of Apache if 4.2.3 wouldn't get going on IIS. But after tweaking have it running now.

BTW need IIS for ASP development as my Boss wont switch from Microsoft centric view of the world....:rolleyes:
