Installing PHP on IIS7 using FastCGI

Or, more precisely, *trying* to install it.

The "Previously" part of my tale can be found here:
forums.iis.net/t/1147538.aspx
in a post on the IIS.NET forums.

To make a long and circumstantial story short, I currently have
installed:

- IIS7
- PHP 5.2.5, non-thread-safe version
- the FastCGI technical preview

When I was looking at these instructions
blogs.iis.net/bills/archive/2007/05/19/how-to-install-fastcg i-and-php-on-iis7-beta-3-video.aspx
I noticed that everything Bills mentioned looks like what I have, except
in
applicationhost.config under


I also have:



modules="IsapiModule" scriptProcessor="C:\php\php5isapi.dll"
resourceType="File" requireAccess="Script" preCondition="" />


which Bills doesn't mention. So I backed IIS and this file up, and then
deleted those lines, in the spirit of scientific enquiry and hitting
stuff
until it works.

Now:

1. Static .php pages appear just fine -- that is, an "index.php" page
with
only HTML, no actual PHP scripting.

2. I don't get an error message when I run phpinfo() or other
actively-scripted pages -- but I don't see anything else, either. It's
all
a blank.

I assume that the problem is the lack of a PHP handler with "Execute",
but I
have no idea what to call it or where to put it.
