Free backup is finally here.  Mozy Remote Backup.There is no shortage of tutorials on the net that show you how to install PHP on Windows with IIS, but since it is a base requirement for so many other things we plan on writing tutorials for, we decided to do a PHP only tutorial for Windows 2003 and IIS.

In this tutorial, we start with a fresh Windows 2003 Standard server with Internet Information Server (IIS) already up and running. We download PHP5, install it manually and configure IIS to serve PHP pages. We don't get into any special editing of the PHP.INI file, but that will be covered in other, more specific tutorials on this site. Looking for more help? Search Amazon for PHP books

I followed your instructions exactly as you explain them and I cam not able to get the index.php file to display the php information. I don't understand. I am running Win 2003 SP3 and it's a 64bit machine. Any ideas. I've done it on two similar servers I still can't get php to display.

how to get rid off the security error...
written by Ayac, March 25, 2009
Hello guys! It is an absolutely great tutorial, however one more thing should have been mentioned. You have to give IWAM_ and IUSR_ read and execute rights (you do not give write permission unless you really need it!) to the c:/php5 folder or wherever you installed php. You also have to make sure, when you set the folder rights, click on the checkbox there to apply settings on all files and subfolders in the php5 folder, otherwise the files will not get the settings properly. After these you should not see the login popup anymore.

UserID/Password Challenge
written by Site Admin, December 12, 2008
==========================================
written by Dylan, August 30, 2008

It asks me to type in a username and password Can anyone help?

==========================================

I had the same problem. Turned out I had to set permissions on the PHP5 folder and it's contents. For that folder, give IUSR_XXXXXXXX (or whatever your website user name is) full permissions. Hope that helps someone.

Thanks for this tutorial. This gave the extra confidence to get things working. Many thanks.. only thing I would have done differently is stressed that someone needs their webserver to be working to at least get to this stage.
