Hi,

I am running PHP on a Windows 2000 box running IIS.

I want to configure my server to usethe imap dll.

Is it possible to simply copy the dll into the php directory and then enable it within the php.ini file?

I am more used to Apache setups so I am not 100& clear how PHP works on IIS.

My php.ini is located in the following location:

c:/winnt

But there is also a PHP folders :

c:/php

I have placed the imap.dll in the php folder and uncommented the line in the php.ini file.

Is there anything else I need to do or am I over simplyfying things here?

I noticed there is also a line in the php.ini where you can specify the module extensions directory, do I need to do this and if so what would it be inmy case. I did try "c:/php" but this seemed to cause php not to start correctly.

Many thanks in advance,

Rob.

Further to my post above I have noticed that when I uncomment the line to enable the php_imap.dll module it prevents IIS from working, pages on the server will not open.

As soon as I comment out the line the pages display.

Odd! Any ideas?
