Running PHP5 on IIS 6

I love ColdFusion, ask anyone I work with. Though, I know it doesn’t always offer the best solution (yet, ). One example of this is administering MySQL. I know there is a CF based solution called CFMyAdmin. I am not knocking the developers of CFMyAdmin, they came up with a good product… it’s just not what I am used to. I cut my teeth in web development using PHP, and for MySQL administration, there is no better tool, in my humble opinion, than PHPMyadmin.

I think some access/permissions settings need to be made in another folder somewhere.

Scott,

Thanks for the great entry! Trying to get tinyMCE Spell Checking working so I had to install PHP. Just a quick suggestions, alternatively to the steps above "Open the file C:\php.ini-recommended in a text editor and save it as C:\WINDOWS\php.ini." you can set a System Variable named "PHPRC" that points to the "C:\PHP" folder if you don't want to move stuff into the "C:\WINDOWS" directory.

I have read Microsoft KB articles on this that say you need to convert php sites connecting to a MySQL database to use ADO. Any comments on this? Please say it isn't so!
