| This article was received from a verynice individual who wanted to share their thoughts about PHP and IIS.ASPfree.com or people involved who provide this information aren'tresponsible for anything that goes wrong by using this information. Ifthis blows up your Server, we aren't responsible. This involvesregistry changes and such (So make backups before doing changes!). It'svery detailed and if your not comfortable in doing this, leave thechanges up to your web-admin. This content is provided only because wehaven't seen too many other sites provide this type of information!Enjoy!! I am currently running PHP on Windows NT with IIS 4 installed. We use it on our Intranet server. I am also running MySQL database with IIS without any problems so far.
The following is an extract of the readme.txt file, which gives the correct procedure (located in the php directory). I followed the procedure, configured IIS the same way as you would for ASP and have been playing around without any hassle!
Basically you need to put your ini file (which you have to rename yourself into the correct directory for Win 95/98 or NT: (typicaly c:windows or c:winnt) <> rename the file php_iis_reg.inf for this
After that you need only to configure IIS. registry entries for PWS & IIS: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE:SystemCurrentControlSetServicesW3SvcParametersScri pt Map .php3 "c:php3php.exe %s %s"
*******************************************************************
If you have used the setup program, and have IIS or PWS, you are almost ready to go. You must first decide which directories in your web server will contain php scripts, and make those directories executable. You will need to manualy edit configurations for other web servers. Otherwise, you can follow the instructions below for installation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- An INF file (php_iis_reg.inf) has been included that will automaticaly add registry settings for IIS 3 and PWS.
registry entries for PWS & IIS: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE:SystemCurrentControlSetServicesW3SvcParametersScri pt Map .php3 "c:php3php.exe %s %s"
As more server specific information is gathered, more registry entries may be added.
NOTE: I have not been able to get php to work correctly with PWS 4 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALLATION
Make a directory, such as c:php3, and place all the rest of the dlls there.
If you are not using Apache NT server, you can set an environment variable in your autoexec.bat file, add this line:
SET PHPRC=windowsphp3.ini
and place your php3.ini file in whatever directory you specify. Otherwise, be sure to place php3.ini in your os directory (typicaly c:windows or c:winnt).
msql1.dll, calendar.dll and msql2.dll must be located in the same directory as php3.exe, or you must specify where these files are located either in your php3.ini file, or in the php3 script.
Notes on IIS4 -------------------- Start Internet Service Manager Right click on the website you are installing php in Select properties Click on the TAB "Home Directory" Select 'Script' under permisions Click on button 'Configuration' Click on button 'Add' Executable should be c:php3php.exe %s %s (Yes, TWO %s's acording to M$ docs) Extension .php (or whatever you use) Check 'Script Engine' Click on OK Click on OK again. Stop then Start the web server. PHP should now work. If it doesn't verify the 'everyone' has full access to the directory c:php3 and everything within it.
Try running a simple script such as <? phpinfo(); ?>
