ID: 33606 User updated by: fordgt90concept at hotmail dot com Reported By: fordgt90concept at hotmail dot com -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: IIS related Operating System: Windows XP Professional x64 Edit PHP Version: 5.0.4 New Comment:
I am reopening this because I have since received five emails from people saying this fix worked. The problem is PHP does not have a 64-bit binary and as time passes, more people are/will be using 64-bit environments. I again request that issue be resolved. At bare minimum, add it to the manual for installing PHP on IIS. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-08 15:36:28] fordgt90concept at hotmail dot com Some friendly person contacted me after seeing this article and told me how to correct it. The issue is indeed caused by IIS attempting to run php5isapi.dll with 64-bit extensions which would of course lead to failure. I corrected this by entering the following into the Windows Run dialog: cscript %SYSTEMDRIVE%\inetpub\adminscripts\adsutil.vbs SET W3SVC/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1 If you people could kindly add a comment about installing PHP on the Windows 64-bi environment, it could potentially help many people. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 19:24:02] fordgt90concept at hotmail dot com IIS complaining that php5isapi.dll is not a valid w32 application is an issue with PHP. Since PHP fails to start, ISAPI filters show it as "Not Loaded." I don't know if that is because I'm one of the few running x64 Edition, if it is because 5.0.4 has a flaw in it, or a combination of 5.0.4's inability to operate on Windows XP Professional x64 Edition. I will try the latest PHP 4 release to see if that resolves the issue but I somehow doubt it will. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 18:44:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 16:48:51] fordgt90concept at hotmail dot com HTML = Works fine PHP = "%1 is not a valid Win32 application." 500 Internal Server Error (Extension configured) PHP = 404 Error (Extension unconfigured) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-07-07 16:38:26] fordgt90concept at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ I have followed your guide and a two other 3rd party guides to install PHP 5 on Windows Server 2003 (Windows XP x64 Edition's big brethren) and both of them ended with all PHP files I tried to load returning a 500 Internal Server Error. Once I figured out how to turn off friendly errors in Internet Explorer, I discovered it was producing the error "%1 is not a valid Win32 application." Knowing that IIS itself was all fine and dandy (opens public HTML documents fine), I looked to find what should really be in place of that %1. After about 30 minutes of trying to find an explaination online, I dedcided to try to isolate this as indeed being a PHP problem. I went back into Web Sites Properties, Home Directory Tab, and took the .php configuration out under Configuration (file path was C:\PHP\php5isapi.dll). When I do this, the PHP pages just hang when I try to access them but it does manage to change the title of the page to "Cannot find server." Here is my test html page (only available if my computer is on obviously) which should just say "HTML and network settings are fine!": http://67.138.134.169/index.html Here is a test PHP file that should echo "It works!": http://67.138.134.169/index.php At the time of sending this, the PHP extension is configured in IIS. Only changes in php.ini (copied from the recommended included in the zip) doc_root = "c:\Inetpub\wwwroot" extension_dir = "C:\PHP\ext" cgi.force_redirect = 0 All extension= lines are commented out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=33606&edit=1
