  PHP 5.3 on SBS 2008 IIS 7 Install Reply Contact I have installed PHP 5.3 and set it up using the FastCGI method as that seems to be the prefered method at this time.  I have verified that php is set up correctly as i am able to run scripts from command line.  However I can not for the life of me get any php file to display in a browser.  I have verified that the .php extension is in the list of handler mappings under PHP via FastCGI. Also verified that the handler was pointing to F:\PHP\php-cgi.exe which is (re-verified) the location of the php files.  I have tried all the tricks that i have found on the net, but still nothing. I have installed the php package via the windows installer and the binaries. both same outcome. I even tried to step back a version to php 5.2 and still did not work.  Am I completely missing something? I have a PowerEdge T410 Server running SBS2008 x64 and IIS 7. In the beginning it was just showing php code, now it continuely asks if i want to download or save the file when i try to browse to a php file via browser. Also have verifide that HTML files display properly.  Pullin my hair out for a day and a half now. Any words of advice would be helpful.

I deleted the value and left it blank. now it seems to work.  kind of wierd considering 2 or 3 of the installs i used told me to set a value for that setting.
