Thanks for responding.

I actually just fixed this. In going through the FastCGI setup here, I noticed that under configuration .php wasn't installed for the individual web sites. If I went to the "web sites" folder properties, it was installed (as the instructions specified). By replicating the setup into the individual site, I got it working.

Could you post some additional information relating to your error? For example, what is the substatus code (404.XX)? Or could you post the results from tracing a failed request?

Some good steps for enabling and viewing detailed error messages as well as notes on how to enable failed request tracing are located here:

Posting this information could make a diagnosis of your issue more straightforward.

Wordpress Issues

I installed MySQL, and then ran the WordPress install from WPI. after everything was completed, I clicked the "show my app" link, and went to a "directory browsing not allowed" error, which meant that the .php extension was non registered in IIS. I corrected that, and now get a 404 trying to view the index.php page, even though I know it's there in the folder.

Is this an issue with the PHP setup?
