Running on WIndows Best Practices

Hello

I have an PHP 5.x application that is currently running on the LAMP stack.

I am working with a client who has basically informed us that they are Microsoft centric and will not allow any PHP on their network.

I would like to know some options of dealing with this hurdle.

We are in the process of testing our code using PHP and FstCGI to rin on IIS, but we are still getting an issue with PHP....

I see that there is a tutorial referenced here on compiling using Visual Studio...is this an option to clear the hurdle I am facing?

I was also wondering if there are any other alternatives.

Thanks in advance for the help

Dave

if your customer won't allow .php you'll probably have to port your php application to some other technology, not an easy thing to do.

Thanks for the reply... If I compile the PHP code using Visual Studio, wont it result in .NET compiled code?

Nope. Unless you're using the magic translating/porting version of Visual Studio (that doesn't exist as far as I know) :)
