Thanks John,

In php.ini I defined: error_log = C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\PHPError.log
then restarted the server with iisreset.exe
then started with IE: http://127.0.0.1/.../phpinfo.php
and after 10 minutes still "Connecting / Waiting for .../phpinfo.php"
and still no C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\PHPError.log created ...


I see several problems.

1) It's bad practice to put the log file in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot where anyone can access it. 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.

Hi Tommy,

In php.ini I changed to: error_log = C:\PHPerror.log
restarted the IIS server, then http://127.0.0.1/.../phpinfo.php
and after 5 minutes still "Connecting / Waiting for .../phpinfo.php"

Then I changed to: error_log = C:\tmp\PHPerror.log
restarted the IIS server, then http://127.0.0.1/.../phpinfo.php
and after 5 minutes still "Connecting / Waiting for .../phpinfo.php"

I will look for all local filenames containing the string "log" ...

Thanks, Cor
