IIS Giving a 500 Internal Server Error When Serving a PHP file

2.2k views Asked by At

I am trying to work on a project locally that uses PHP. I am using IIS 7.5 on Windows 7 with PHP 5.6.2. I was trying to set up FirePHP so I could use that to send out debug messages to the Firebug console.

For the PHP portion, I followed this guide:

http://php.net/manual/en/install.windows.iis7.php

Here are some thing I've checked:

  • PHP is installed. Checked from cmd.exe with PHP -i.
  • FirePHP installed. Console and net tabs enabled. Firefox restarted.
  • ASP.NET CGI etc activated
  • Double checked the php.ini file as per that guide
  • Handler mapping in IIS
  • Checked mime type in IIS

Here's the log file from IIS. Nothing is jumping out at me. What did I miss in terms of configuring? (Pastebin with the same text if you find that more convenient: enter link description here)

After a few more hours of tinkering, I found someone who wrote a .bat file to do all of the php-iis stuff for you. You already need to have PHP installed. Here is the link, I hope this saves someone else the hours of headache I just went through.

Rapid PHP Deployment for IIS using a Batch File

Just FYI: I still don't know entirely what was wrong with my configuration. But if it works, it works.
