Configuring Step 1: Install IIS and PHP. 6 minutes to read.In this articleby Keith Newman andIn this step of building a PHP website, you install IIS and FastCGI, download and install PHP and the WinCache extension, and upload your PHP application.When you are done, make sure that IIS and the PHP are installed, and your PHP application has been added to your website.
Then go on to.1.1. Install IISYou can use the Web Platform Installer (Web PI) to install IIS, and applications that run on IIS. Web PI installs the latest versions of available Web Platform offerings with just a few simple clicks. Using Web PI, you can download and install any new tools or updates, including PHP. To learn more about the Web PI, see.If you do not use Web PI to install IIS, you can install IIS manually.
Dead island fury mode. Hi Everyone!I just upgraded to Windows 10. When I upgraded I just wanted to setup a small PHP website. I enabled IIS, CGI and all stuff needed for getting PHP working.PHP is working fine, however, I was trying to install PHP manager on Windows 10 but I am not having success.I found that some people had issues because.NET 3.5 was not installed.I verified if.NET 3.5 was installed, I even reinstalled using the dism command line. I am even able to compile.NET 3.5 applications in Visual Studio, but I still can't install PHP Manager.Any ideas?Thanks for the help.
Using PHP Manager for IIS to setup and configure PHP. 2 minutes to read.In this articleby InstallationFrom the page select the installation package that is appropriate for your target machine. Download and run the installer, which will install and register PHP Manager's binaries with IIS. Note that only IIS versions 7.0 and above are supported. After installation is complete, launch the IIS Manager and find the 'PHP Manager' feature:When opened, the 'PHP Manager' feature provides a configuration overview for the PHP installation that is registered with IIS and is currently active. If no PHP is registered with IIS, then the only action that can be performed is the registation of a new PHP version.
Registering PHP with IISTo register a new PHP version with IIS, first you need to download the zip archive with PHP binaries from and then extract the files from it into a folder of your choice. Note that you can also install PHP by using or the Windows installer from - the PHP Manager can be used to manage those PHP installations as well.Click on ' Register new PHP version' task and then provide the full path to the location of the main php executable file: php-cgi.exe:After clicking OK the new PHP version will be registered with IIS and will become active. This means that all the sites on this IIS server by default will use this PHP version. Validating existing PHP installations and fixing configuration issuesIn order for PHP to run properly on IIS there is a set of recommended settings that need to be configured in IIS and PHP. PHP Manager checks if all of the recommended settings are configured correctly. If some settings are not configured properly then you can use PHP Manager to fix those settings.When some configuration settings are configured incorrectly you will see a warning message when you open PHP Manager:After clicking on 'View Recommendations' link you can see all the configuration issues that exist in your PHP installation.
Php Manager For Iis Codeplex
You can review each issue description and the recommended corrective action. You can also select which configuration issues you want to be fixed:Switching between PHP versionsAfter multiple PHP versions have been registered with IIS, you can use PHP Manager to easily switch between the versions on a server and site level.
This means that you can configure some IIS sites to use one PHP version, while other sites use different version.Checking phpinfo outputphpinfo function in PHP provides very detailed information about all aspects of PHP runtime configuration. To check the phpinfo output from within PHP Manager use the ' Check phpinfo' task.Configuring Error ReportingYou can use PHP Manager to configure error reporting level in PHP. If IIS is used on a development machine then you may want to use verbose error reporting in order to see all the errors, warnings and notices from your PHP application right away. If IIS is used as a production server, then error reporting level is less verbose and errors are logged in a log file, but never communicated to HTTP client.Configuring Runtime LimitsVarious timeouts and limits can be configured in the ' PHP Runtime Limits' page:Configuring All PHP SettingsAll existing PHP settings can be added, removed and modified in the ' PHP Settings' page.Enabling or Disabling PHP ExtensionsPHP extensions can be enabled or disabled in the ' PHP Extensions' page.
Ran into this issue just a few days ago. I have been trying to set up a relatively cross-platform dev environment, and finally got around to tweaking the PHP side of things. When I went to set up a greenfield PHP project, I realized I needed to configure PHP on a per-site basis.
The easiest tool for the job was PHP Manager (via the Web Platform Installer), but for some reason it wouldn’t install. The error message was cryptically generic — one of those that essentially said, “you dun goofed; good luck finding out where, tho”. So I dug into the settings and discovered that it was doing a check for the Windows version.Well, guess what? The installation wasn’t failing for any really good excuse, such as true incompatibility or security restrictions or stuff like that. It was failing because it wasn’t encountering the version of Windows it was expecting.
For a moment there I actually had to check my calendar to see if it was really 2016 instead of 1996. You just don’t see code that purposefully scuttles forward compatibility all that often these days.To correct this issue, you will need to make a temporary change to the registry for the duration of the installation.
Go into HKEYLOCALMACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesW3SVCParametersand look for an entry called 'MajorVersion'Open it up, and switch it over from Hexadecimal to Decimal. In its default state, it will be 10 (for Windows 10), you need to lower it to at least 9 (and maybe 8 or 7 if that doesn’t work).
This will bring what IIS identifies as the platform it is installed on down to a version that PHP Manager will willingly install onto.Once you are done installing the PHP Manager, it is a good idea to change this setting back to what it was before (10, or Ax0 in Hexadecimal) to avoid any other potential issues with IIS itself in the future.Good luck.
