Is there a hack or similar to get $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] working under IIS?

Like I said, the line it seems to reckon the problem is on is that very last line, but it makes sense that the PHP renderer engine thinks it's just missing something by then - who knows...

Ok.

Thanks.

Funny enough one of my first stuff-ups was that I didn't initially realise
that all three different types of parentheses, brackets, and braces were
being used since I was sort of listening for cues as opposed to listening to
specific details, and I suppose this is pretty much related.

I know that one or two of the editing programs I use can in fact sort of do
'matches' for opening and closeing braces {}, and maybe they can then also
double-check for ones that then don't having matching ones or something.

Anyway, thanks again - will fix it and go on from there...

Stay well

This is a long shot, but...

I'm running PHP5.2.5 on Win2000 with IIS 5.0. PHP was working fine until
yesterday -- when I might have accidentally moved some files around in the
inetpub folder (b/c of a super-sensitive touchpad on my laptop :< I wasn't
swift enough to hit "undo" after that happened.

Now, when I try to open PHP files in Internet Explorer, I just see the PHP
code. I don't think I've messed up IIS -- it seems to be running fine -- and
I don't think I messed up the PHP525 or WINNT folders. I'm guessing this
problem might be because of the folders I possibly moved in inetpub --- but
maybe there's another reason that I'm not seeing? Any ideas?

Does anyone know how the inetpub folder is *supposed* to be organized?
Here's my current directory structure:

-Inetpub
 |-AdminScripts
 |-ftproot
 |-iissamples
   |-homepage
     |-themes
   |-sdk
     |-admin
     |-asp
       |-applications
       |-components
       |-database
       |-docs
       |-interaction
       |-simple
       |-transactional
 |-mailroot
 |-Scripts
 |-webpub
 |-wwwroot
   |-php_files

If this structure is messed up, can you tell me how I should move the
folders to get PHP working again? Alternatively, I'm thinking of just
re-installing PHP, and if that doesn't work, and possibly reformatting my
hard drive and reinstalling Win2000.

Thanks in advance for any help!

[RTFM! From the ‘install.txt’…]

15. How do I make the php.ini file available to PHP on windows?

   There are several ways of doing this. If you are using Apache, read
   their installation specific instructions (Apache 1, Apache 2),
   otherwise you must set the PHPRC environment variable:

   On Windows NT, 2000, XP and 2003:

     * Go to Control Panel and open the System icon (Start -> Settings ->
       Control Panel -> System, or just Start -> Control Panel -> System
       for Windows XP/2003)
     * Go to the Advanced tab
     * Click on the 'Environment Variables' button
     * Look into the 'System variables' pane
     * Click on 'New' and enter 'PHPRC' as the variable name and the
       directory where php.ini is located as the variable value (e.g.
       C:\php)
     * Press OK and restart your computer

Subject: Changing/checking php.ini, and yet still the 'wrong' include_path

Hello,

I am doing some tidying, and so getting rid of the PHP that comes with 
MapServer MS4W package – and replacing with a clean install of PHP5, moving my 
root to the ‘default’ directory, etc, etc…

On a Windows XP ‘test server’ running IIS 5.1 (getting a ‘proof of concept’ up 
for a client, 2003 + IIS 6 when they give me some $$ for a server!   ☺   (and 
IIS as that is the company ‘standard’…  ☺  ))

I got everything running OK with PHP installed as C:\php\ using the MSI 
installed and IIS CGI…

All the PHP code seems to work just nicely that I have started using… except 
when I tried to get PEAR up and going…

Ran the go-pear.bat as am using some of these packages in the web/PHP pages 
already written and in use… runs fine at the command line (list, install, 
upgrade, etc) BUT…

When I go to a web page that worked fine previously, I get:

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 
'numbers/Roman.php' (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in 
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\standard_format_items\bottom_navigation_bar.php on line 21

As you can see the include path is wrong…

Looking at phpinfo.php, it and the extensions directory also show C:\php5\ 
instead of C:\php\

 - C:\php\php.ini has the right include path

 - I checked that the Windows PATH was C:\php\

 - I had a look in the registry as per the manual install notes at php.net and 
no sign of   \php5\ (although the keys they mention are NOT there…)

 - did a couple of restarts, in case it needed to ‘take’

 - checked C:\windows\pear.ini

Where the heck is this erroneous C:\php5\ and .;C:\php5\pear values kept? And 
how do I change them?

Thanks in advance…

(and I would rather not change the directory name to C:\php5\, with all that 
entails!   ☺  )

I ran into this as well when I recently set up PHP on IIS.

Adding the PHPRC environment variable as per this page is what solved it for
me.

Hello,

*Is there a hack (?), a workaround or some alternative to get 
$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] working under IIS?*

I am new(ish) to PHP, IIS and web pages as a whole (!)

I was hoping to get the 'breadcrumbs' feature working...

And for a variety of reasons I am using IIS (currently v5.1 on some test 
hardware running XP Pro, soon to be 6.x (?) on Server '03 when the client gets 
me the dosh...)

Using PHP 5.2.5, if that matters...

Note that I am still using this stuff in a 'black box'-ish way, so feel free to 
talk down to me!  GRIN

For instance, I tried to use the approach at http://tinyurl.com/2zb4ck before I 
gained enough knowledge to realise this solves a different (but similar) - it 
seems - problem...

Thanks in advance...
