Hi

I am currently doing PHP programming on Windows 7 with IIS 7 and Apache 2.2, and I am wondering if anybody is having any issues in doing similar development on Windows 7? I am have been having some operational issues that is I did not have with PHP programming (WAMP and WISP) on Windows XP.

I have Windows 7 x64, nginx x64 & PHP x64 (thread safe) here and all working just fine. What kind of problems are you facing?

I am on Windows 7 x32:

1. I tried installing Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.2.11 (or 5.3) Thread-Safe and WampServer 2.0i: http://www.wampserver.com/en/; and with both setups Apache would not Start because php.exe and php5ts.dll would faulter.

2. I installed configure my workstation using Microsoft Web Platform Installer 2.0 RC: http://www.microsoft.com/web/Downloads/platform.aspx, which configured IIS 7 and installed PHP 5.2.11 Non-Thread-Safe and the my following problems were:
2.a. While running my PHP Web page, php-cgi.exe and php_pdo.dll would faulter
2.b. I could run PHP cURL and file_get_contents functions in PHP scripts, but these same functions would return no results (false) if they were ran on a PHP Web page running IIS7 even though allow_url_fopen is ON.

Thanks for the reply

P.S. What is nginx?

What's the error? I think some dependencies are not running.
