Is Apache Needed w/IIS (Windows 2003) for PHP Install

I am a newbie when it comes to installing PHP. The install seemed
direct and pretty simple. I've installed the latest build of PHP along
with checking to see if my IIS settings are correct. I've also given
permissions to my php.ini file for "Everyone" yet when I try to view
a .php file in my browser, the page does not come up.

http://www.fusicology.com/info.php or http://www.fusicology.com/test.php
are not appearing.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

It's not "needed" as you can serve and parse php using IIS. However, I
prefer to install WAMP5 and use that instead of IIS.

I will install WAMP5 with hopes in this resolving my issue.

It's not to hard to set up PHP on IIS the second or third time, but the
first can be a bit confusing.

In your case it looks like either the file is not where it's supposed to
be, or the PHP dll can't be found.

Try searching on

php iis configuration

There are several good tutorials out there which will take you through
the process step-by-step.

Thank you for the responses!

I must be doing something wrong. I originally tried to do the install
using hte installer provided by php.net however, my results were the
same doing the manual install. I am wondering if my php.ini file has
the correct information under the doc_root portion. I set the path to
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot which is where my root website is located. Do I
need the quotation marks for this within the ini file?

Help!

Nina,

If you're using php as an isapi extension and not a CGI, just leave
doc_root empty.

You actually shouldn't have to make *any* changes to the PHP.INI file
just to get a basic phpinfo(); page going - just use the default. Get
our IIS set up correctly first, then start fooling with php.ini.

Thank you for your help. It worked!! I also noticed a few of the
tutorials on php iis configuration were a little off, however, this
one proved to work best:

http://www.visualwin.com/PHP-ISAPI/

It references PHP 4 however, the installation is the same.
