w2k3 server + php

[TTT]

anyone had problems with w2k3 server (web edition) + php??

seems that i got some problem with .php , because if i try:

for($a=0;$a<100000;$a++) {
echo "d";
}

... takes over 30s
and long d-string is prited like
ddddd (0.5s break) ddddddddddd(break again) ....

sys.info
p4 2,3
ram 512
w2k3 web edition

lucky you... I couldn't even get php to run on Win2k3 Server

I'm not sure if that would be a problem in PHP, or in IIS6 (I'm assuming that's what you were using?). It may just be incompatibilities with the latest PHP versions and IIS6.

However, because I don't have 2k3 installed, I can't comment much further. When I install my trial version, I'll install IIS6 and see what happens.

Thinking this will go down better in the Install forum.

i had no problem installing php 4.3.2 on w2k3 web edition

i used the installer from this page:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=75482

Hallo,

If there is a problem with w2k3 and iis6 than use Apache, works better and faster on my w2k machine than iis5

I bet you didnt add it to the Web Service Extensions..

open up the IIS Manager (MMC)..

open your server

go to Web Service Extensions

click Add a new Web service extension

Name it PHPCGI or whatever you want.. and add your php.exe extension.. this will allow it to run in CGI mode (.exe) but it may slow down in performance (big debate on CGI or ISAPI)

restart IIS and it might work! ;)
