IIS error 404, when i add IsapiRewrite4.dll to ISapi filter, version: iis = 5, windows = xp pro?

Hi

My iis webserver works fine and and is configured with php, mysql etc, but when i add:

Isapi filter: D:\rewrite\IsapiRewrite4.dll

(i also added IsapiRewrite4.ini to my d:\rewrite directory)

and under directory security i have my current admin user:
MPC\web_user

i then restart iis services, and i get:


HTTP 404 - File not found
Internet Information Services

not even .html pages will open from my webserver:
http://mpc/head.html

i checked services:
IIS Admin
World Wide Web Publishing

And they are working fine in services, all started!

Strange but when i remove my: Isapi filter everything works fine, and i can view pages through iis, internet explorer as normal.

Reason i added a filter was because i need to rewrite urls produced by my php pages:

http://mpc/new.php?id="98"
to search engine friendly urls without ? and without .php & with names

Thanks in advance

Kind Regards
Tovia Singer
