Installing php5

[bposner]

Greetings
I've always installed vb on hosted sites. I am installing a new system, vb4.x, on a server with IIS and was wondering if anyone had a link to the specifics of PHP4 and MySql for this version to install from scratch? I am not looking for a support, just a link or two :)

Thanks!

Thanks, typo on my part, sorry..

anyway have that all done, but get an error from IIS "The data is invalid" when I try to just get to the webserver. I've put IIS up a number of times and never ran into this.. I think it has something do to with the PHP5 installation. I haven't even got to the VB installation yet LOL..

Do you get Error 13?
reinstall your IIS if so

Thanks Chop, I realize this.. as I stated I wasn't looking for support, just talking with the community. I've run and do run multiple sites but this is the first one I've actually owned the hardware, all of the others were hosted.. so this IIS and modules required is new to me.
