Thanks for this, MOST Useful …. But !
There is a better way of having windows locate your php.ini files etc.
Go to ;
START – Settings –
Control Panel – System

Then click ;
Advanced System Settings
Then click ;
Environment Variables and
under in the lower panel ; System Variables – scroll down and select ‘Path’ then click Edit – and on the end of the line add :
;C:\PHP;C:\PHP\Ext

(assuming that dir C:\PHP is where youi extracted things / change accordingly.)
This way when you make changes/upgrades you will only be changing things in your PHP dir and not hunting around for where you ‘think you ‘may’ have put things’.
(EX Programmer speaking from Nasty Experiences of similar system changes.)

I have perl, mysql but php not working on my 2003 R2 server.
I’m looking for help on that.
CGI scrips run on my server except for a combination CGI/PHP app I am trying to run called Movable Type version: 4.24-en

Real close to getting her but no cigar. /mt is the address.

@ROB: I am facing the same problem but i figured out that the handler should be added under the default website. i.e.
1- open iis manager
2- click on default website on left hand tree
3- click on handler mapping and then add *.php as described above.
hope it help.
