Set up IIS to have IIS support PHP. The CGI and ISAPI two modes are supported when PHP is consolidated with IIS, the ISAPI mode is efficient, the performance is good, the stability is slightly worse, the CGI mode is the opposite. Typically, the ISAPI mode is first, and the problem is replaced by the CGI mode. It is recommended that you use ISAPI mode. The ISAPI mode installation method is described below
Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, expand the left side, right-click on the Web Site tab, select Properties, and open the Site Properties dialog box;
Click the "ISAPI Filter" tab, click "Add", open the Add/Edit Filter Properties dialog box, filter name fill out "PHP", the executable file select "Php5isapi.dll", the file is located in the root directory of PHP directory, add finished click "OK" confirmation;
Click on the "Home Directory" tab of the "Site Properties" dialog box and click "Configure" under "Home Directory".
Open the Application Configuration dialog box and click Add to open the Add/Edit Application Extension Mappings dialog box;
"Executable" still selects the Php5isapi.dll in the root directory of the PHP installation directory, and the extension is set to "PHP."
The PHP support setting ends and the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager is closed. Restart IIS, open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager again, and view the ISAPI filter option, where you can see an extra item in the filter, as shown in the following illustration:
Add a default document. Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, expand the left side, right-click on the Web Site tab, select Properties, open the Web Site Properties dialog box, and select the Documents tab;
Click "Add", enter "index.php" in "Default content page", click OK, continue to click "Add", enter "default.php", click OK. Add IIS to support index.php and default.php as default documents; the previous PHP support has been set up, but the PHP file cannot be accessed at this point because Windows2003 introduced a new security mechanism and needed to set up a Web service extension.
Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, expand the content on the left, right-click on Web service extensions, and select Add a new Web service extension;
To enter "PHP" in "extension", ask the file to select the Php5isapi.dll that is located in the root directory of the PHP installation directory, and then select the "Set extended status to Allow" checkbox and click OK to close the dialog box.
Now you can make a probe test, create a file named "php.php" in the IIS root directory, open it in Notepad, and enter
<?php
Phpinfo ();
?>
Save, open "http://localhost/php.php" in the browser, and you should display the following figure
PHP installation completed.
