The PHP application I'm using isn't currently compatible with PHP 5.3.x, so I need a 5.2 build, but it will also be running in IIS 6. What is my best option? Use the VC6 x86 Thread Safe build of 5.2.13, use the older VC9 x86 Thread Safe build of 5.2.12, or use something else? (BTW, what is the difference between the Windows binaries at www.php.net vs. the binaries from windows.php.net ? GCC builds vs. VS?)

I've heard of FastCGI, but never used it before. If I want to get the application running ASAP without FastCGI (please don't argue), what would be the effect of using the thread-safe VC6 build of 5.2.13? Just a decrease in performance? >There are no difference between www.php.net and windows.php.net >binaries. PHP 5.3 and later will be available only via windows.php.net >(easier to add more versions, document, etc.). Yes, less confusing that way. ;) Thanks again, Todd -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
