PHP issues on Windows 2003 Server...
Posted: Thu Jul 01, 2004 6:46 pm
I am running PHP 4.3.x on Windows 2003 Server and am having the issues described below...
Please understand that I am an ASP.NET programmer and only know a little bit of PHP (which probably explains why I am so stuck). I am desperate for any help here you might be able to give...
Issue 1) I installed Zend Optimizer after installing Ion Cube, and when I run PHPInfo() it always says Ion Cube is installed but never mentions that Zend Optimizer is. When I try to run ZEND Optimizer encoded files, then it says that the Zend Optimizer is not installed. However I installed the latest Zend Optimizer with the windows install-shield file, but programs that are Zend encoded just will not run.
Issue 2) I am having problems getting a support program called 'Kayako eSupport' that uses PHP to send me emails. It uses the PHP Mail() functions through htmlMimeMail. When I look in my mail server's log file it reports nothing as if PHP didn't even try to send the message. Please note that we have 2 mail servers and we have tried it with both, and it doesn't work on either. We have tested the mail servers extensively using other languages such as Outlook and ASP.NET and have 0 problems with SMTP / POP / IMAP, etc... So this must be a PHP configuration issue.
Other then the (2) above issues, PHP works 100% normally and it will run non-encoded or ION Cube encoded files. I can even send mail using PHP BB, but even PHP-BB will only send 'Authenticated SMTP' and not 'Unauthenticated'. Again, I can promise you this issue isn't our email servers as they have been tested over and over again, and "require SMTP authentication" is not enabled on our email servers if you're wondering.
I have been wrestling with these problems for days, and have tried changing so many php.ini values, reinstalled everything, etc...
This is one of the 'stuckest', for lack of a better term, I've ever been in the network admin world.
My boat is sinking... Anyone got a bucket?
