Blank Site

hello out here,

i've tried to follow your how-to about installing php5 on iis 6.0 but did receive a blank site every time. so i tried to use iis-aid with the same effect.

i'm using a w2003 standard server within a domain, iis v6.0 installed on it and want to use php.
don't know what's going wrong.

iis-aid finished without errors but trying to call an index.php with the following code brings up a blank screen.

<?php
phpinfo
();
?>

Is this just a member server, or are you running AD on this box?

Have the default file permissions been altered at all at any stage? One thing I need to make a bit more robust in the installer is that it assumes the default file system permissions are in place.

sorry dominic,

maybe my english is not as good as yours, but i don't understand what you mean when you say 'default file system permissions'. i've set change permissions to the IUSR_MyServer for the wwwroot directory.

should I set change permissions to the IUSR_MyServer for the whole drive where wwwroot exists ?

you've to know that the os is situated on drive C: (RAID 1) and inetpub\wwwroot on drive F: (RAID 5)

kind regards

No, you should only need the permissions for IUSR_MyServer on inetpub\wwwroot. What settings do you have for cgi.force_redirect in php.ini?

Hi Franz,

I assume you have fastcgi.impersonate = 1 also? I still suspect it might be a permission issue, though it is a bit hard to troubleshoot when the only thing you've got to go on is that you are getting a blank page. What permissions do you currently have set on your webroot?
