Severud @ SFSU

BillS' IIS Blog eplains how easy it is to configure IIS7 to use PHP5 on Longhorn RC1 and deservedly gives himself a nice pat on the back for getting part of this in to RC1. Some suggestions I'd make are to:

• add the location of php.ini to IniFilePath in HKLM\SOFTWARE\PHP
• leave php5isapi.dll in the php directory instead of moving it to System32 (this will ease upgrades)
• add the php folder to the path environment variable
• if using php-recommended.ini, as suggested, be sure to turn on short_open_tag

For installing PHP in IIS6 see this.

The SFSU Software Freedom Day planning committee meeting. I wasn't much help, but maybe next year. In the meantime check out Opensource.sfsu.edu.

Looks like SFSU would rather be known as SF State. Although it looks like you won't be able to go to sfstate.edu; instead you'll still need to type www.sfsu.edu. Too funny! The logo is nice but a bit better styling for the "SF State" probably would have helped even more.

For more on this read the top story in the Sept 5, 2006 Campus Memo.
