This article Article The purpose is to tell you how to configure PhP4 in your iis5. I use Windows professional English, iis5 English and php4.0.4-Win32 binaries, which can be downloaded from PhP official site www.php.net. Note that the php4.0.4 release candidate 1 source is prepared for Unix users. What you need is Php 4.0.4 release candidate1 binaries for Win32.
Note: First you need to install iis5, because Win2000 professional forgets it by default. The iis5 installation method does not need to be discussed here. If you have any questions, please refer to other materials.

OK, your configuration is over. Let's write a PHP program and test whether the configuration is successful! Edit a file named hello. php with the following content:
<? PHP
Echo "Hello, world! ";
?>
Save the file to the default file directory (C: inetpubwwwroot) of the default web node, open the browser, and enter localhost/hello in the address bar. PHP, if it goes well, the classic "Hello, world!" It should appear in your browser. If the page cannot be found and you can confirm that the preceding steps are correct, enter the address 127.0.0.1/hello in the address bar of the browser. PHP: if it succeeds, it indicates there is a problem with your hosts file. Edit the hosts file under C: winntsystem32driversetc and add "127.0.0.1 localhost.
Come on, start your PHP journey!
