Installer should have done it. I am not sure how appropriate is this DL to discuss all this. Can you post your problem in http://forums.iis.net/1102.aspx. I will reply there. Let's not flood people's email with unnecessary mails. You can also do PHP install troubleshooting using http://blogs.iis.net/donraman/archive/2009/11/15/troubleshooting-php-installation-on-windows.aspx. I will wait for you on the PHP forum for IIS.

I've gone to the Web Platform Installer and installed PHP. However, when I run my info.php (phpinfo()), I get a 404 error. Looking at the mappings extensions there is no .php extension defined. Shouldn't the installer have configured that?... or do I need to make a manual entry of some kind.
