PHP 5.2.9 seemingly not working

[Almak]

Hello All,

 

I'm as green as they come in the PHP world. I have set up IIS6 successfully on a Windows 2003 server and have been able to pull up a webpage. I also installed PHP 5.2.8 and created a phpinfo.php page, placed it in wwwroot and was able to successfully see the info page.

 

Then, I installed version 5.2.9 and the phpinfo page no longer showed up. I just received the following:

 

The page cannot be found

The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 404.

Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled Web Site Setup, Common Administrative Tasks, and About Custom Error Messages. 

 

I finally ended up totally removing PHP and then re-installing 5.2.9 again. I'm still getting the error above when I go to http://localhost/phpinfo.php.

 

This is how the phpinfo file is set up:

 

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

 

It is saved with the .php ending. Anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to correct this?

 

Thanks,

Almak

I found a "semi-solution" for this. I ended up uninstalling version 5.2.9, removed all instances of php.ini and rebooted. I then re-installed 5.2.8 and it was able to display the phpinfo.php page afterwards. I'll need to do some more research on the install process of 5.2.9. I did the same exact thing with both installs but apparently something is different.
