It's a major security issue. 2) It's been over 3 years since I dealt (hands on) with WinXP so here goes... IIS by default runs as NETWORK SERVICE. That builtin account does not have create/modify rights on C:\Inetpub\wwwroot (by default). Thus you wouldn't be able to see the file created. > and after 10 minutes still "Connecting / Waiting for .../phpinfo.php" This is a good sign as it seems IIS is trying to run PHP but having some problems. Check the System & Application event logs for errors. Change phperror.log file location, restart IIS, and try phpinfo.php again. > Other suggestions ? > TIA, Cor > > > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
