PHP 4.0 - Win32 Distribution
|
||
|
============================
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note
|
||
|
----
|
||
|
|
||
|
PHP 4.0 for Windows comes in two flavours - a CGI executable (php.exe), and an
|
||
|
ISAPI module (php4ts.dll). The latter is new to PHP 4.0, and provides significantly
|
||
|
improved performance and some new functionality. However, please note that the
|
||
|
ISAPI module is *NOT* yet considered to be in production quality. The reason for
|
||
|
this is that the PHP ISAPI module uses the thread-safe version of the PHP code, which
|
||
|
is completely new to PHP 4.0, and has not yet been tested and pounded enough to be
|
||
|
considered completely stable, and there are actually a few known bugs. On the other
|
||
|
hand, some people have reported very good results with the ISAPI module, even though
|
||
|
we're not aware of anyone actually running it on a production site. In short - your
|
||
|
mileage may vary; If you need absolute stability, trade the performance of the ISAPI
|
||
|
module with the stability of the CGI executable.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Requirements
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Windows 95 or later, Windows NT 4.0 or later
|
||
|
- ISAPI 4.0 compliant Web server required for ISAPI module (tested on IIS 4.0, PWS 4.0
|
||
|
IIS 5.0). IIS 3.0 is *NOT* supported; You should download and install the Windows
|
||
|
NT 4.0 Option Pack with IIS 4.0 if you want native PHP support.
|
||
|
- Windows 95 requires the DCOM update, freely available from:
|
||
|
http://download.microsoft.com/msdownload/dcom/95/x86/en/dcom95.exe
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Installation
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Unlike PHP 3, PHP 4 is divided into several components; Even when you use
|
||
|
PHP in its CGI mode, php.exe is no longer a standalone executable, and relies
|
||
|
on external DLLs for execution. For this reason, if you install php.exe as
|
||
|
a handler for your web server, you must make sure that the DLLs in the
|
||
|
distribution exist in a directory that is in the Windows PATH. The easiest way
|
||
|
to do it is to copy these DLLs to your SYSTEM (Windows 9x) or SYSTEM32 (Windows NT)
|
||
|
directory, which is under your Windows directory.
|
||
|
The DLLs that need to be copied are MSVCRT.DLL (it may already exist in there) and
|
||
|
PHP4TS.DLL.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Installation Notes for IIS 4.0 and 5.0
|
||
|
--------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Install the DLLs as mentioned above.
|
||
|
- If you wish to change any defaults, copy either the php.ini-dist or
|
||
|
php.ini-optimized files into your Windows directory, and rename it to
|
||
|
'php.ini'. You can then modify any of the directives inside it.
|
||
|
- Start the Microsoft Management Console (may appear as
|
||
|
'Internet Services Manager', either in your Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack branch
|
||
|
or the Control Panel->Administrative Tools under Windows 2000).
|
||
|
- Right click on your Web server node (will most probably appear as 'Default Web
|
||
|
Server'), and select 'Properties'.
|
||
|
- Under 'ISAPI Filters', add a new ISAPI filter. Use 'PHP' as the filter name,
|
||
|
and supply a path to the php4isapi.dll that is included in the distribution.
|
||
|
- Under 'Home Directory', click on the 'Configuration' button. Add a new entry
|
||
|
to the Application Mappings; Use the path the php4isapi.dll as the Executable,
|
||
|
supply .php as the extension, leave 'Method exclusions', blank, and check
|
||
|
the Script engine checkbox.
|
||
|
- Stop IIS completely (you would have to stop the IIS Administration service for
|
||
|
that - stopping it through the Management Console isn't good enough; You can
|
||
|
do it by typing 'net stop iisadmin' on a command prompt).
|
||
|
- Start IIS again (you can do it by typing 'net start w3svc' on a command prompt).
|
||
|
- Put a .php file under your Web server's document root and check if it works!
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Installation Notes for Microsoft PWS 4.0
|
||
|
----------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Install the php.ini file and the DLLs as mentioned above.
|
||
|
- Edit the enclosed PWS-php4.reg file to reflect the location of your
|
||
|
php4isapi.dll. Forward slashes should be escaped, for example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\w3svc\parameters\Script Map]
|
||
|
".php"="C:\\Program Files\\PHP\\php4isapi.dll"
|
||
|
|
||
|
- In the PWS Manager, right click on a given directory you want to add PHP support
|
||
|
to, and select Properties. Check the 'Execute' checkbox, and confirm.
|
||
|
|
||
|
At this point, PWS should have built-in PHP support.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Adding Extensions
|
||
|
-----------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
A few pre-compiled extensions are included in this release. You can load them
|
||
|
by adding a line like the following to your php.ini file:
|
||
|
extension=path\to\extension\extension_name.dll
|
||
|
Loading these extensions extends the functionality of PHP to support more
|
||
|
functions and protocols.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Good luck,
|
