September 12, 2007 – 11:07

Downloaded MS ISOs and started installing WindowsServer2003 Enterprise Edition. IIS is included in the package.

In a VM, ctrl-alt-del is ctrl-alt-ins, otherwise he applies the ctrl-alt-del to the host system.

  • ServerName: WS2003-MOODLE
  • Installed all updates and patches > turned on automatic updates
  • Installed IIS via Add/Remove programs -> install windows components. For now used standard settings.
  • Installed php in c:\php
  • Installed PECL extensions in c:\php\ext
  • copied php.ini-recommended to php.ini
  • configured php according to this website
  • tada, it seems to work; phpinfo looks all fine
  • Installed SQLServer from ISO
  • Installed SQL Server Management Studio (CD -> D:\tools\setup.exe)
  • Folowed configuration steps on this site
  • Got error with libmssql so configured FreeTDS. FreeTDS seems towork when looking in tes.php
  • Still got same error, does not seem to be DB connex related, might be php issue
  • Tried to find php 5.1.6 version and test
  • 5.1.4 found and runs but mssql does not run yet
