PHP, Windows Server 2008, FastCGI

Hey guys!

I'm an experienced .net developer - but not much knowleged about PHP.

I'm trying to setup a simple wordpress installation on an existing Windows Server 2008. I have installed PHP 5.3, mysql db ...when i run the CMD to execute a local PHP page the CMD returns all the correct HTML...so the PHP thing itself seams to work...

If i acess a HTML/.aspx file in the browser - it response perfect ... but when i try to access a PHP file remotely like index.php it returns 404. When i run it local at the server it simply just download the file...i use FASTcgi and i HAVE setup a FastCgi ext. module in IIS 7.5...

I just read at Wiki...that they also install the following:

php_ldap.dll PHP extension (http://wiki.resourcespace.org/index.php/Installing_on_Windows_Server_2008_R2_64-bit)

I still ask this question - because i would be happy to know if you guys have any idear - will do the trick?

I'm in a hurry, and dont have the option to work on it within the next couple of days ...so all help is very appreciated!!

Thanx in advance!

Martin

Have you tried resetting the IIS Server? If haven't yet, use "iisreset" command in cmd window with admin priviledge to reset the IIS server.

I did the same thing and it's working like a charm.

Hope it helps :)

Thanks.
