Wordpress or PHP Issue???

[jrstafford]

First of all, I am running PHP 5.2.1 with IIS and MySQL on a Window 2003 Server.  phpMyAdmin works fine, and WordPress works fine up until it creates the MySQL tables, which it does create successfully.  Based on all this, I think that PHP is setup correctly although I wonder if I'm having a configuration issue. 

 

As I said, WordPress installs and creates the tables in the mySQL database.  Immediately after the creation of the tables WordPress, I get the login screen and enter my username and password.  Upon hitting the submit button, I get a blank, white screen.  At this point any page including the install pages, login pages, etc gives me a blank screen.  A test php file with a code snippet to write out the current date/time works fine within the WordPress directory.

 

I tried running php.exe from the command line to see if it would produce any errors.  I did a php -i from the command line and received 5 or 6 messages that certain dll files were missing from the ext folder.  I checked the folder...some were actually there, some were not.  I checked the latest PHP package and the missing files are not there either.

 

Not sure where to go from here.  Any help is appreciated!

 

Thanks!
