Install jommla 2.5 on a Windows Server 2008 and use SQL server 2008
Hi there,
Although i think is possible i think i got stuck help would be much appreciated!
I'm able to see the joomla installation instruction and everything which is half of way but when i go to select the database only mySql is the only option that shows on the database drop down. I have tried so many way s on how to make my SQL database option to show but it does no want to work. Can you experts give some pointer or tell me how to do it? I try to locate my php.ini but i wasn't able to find it windows Server does not shows me where the file is and i did a search and it came back with the plesk information.
I'm working on a dedicated server out in the internet and i have full control over help would be much appreciated

ok this might help pin point the problem
i go to IIS Manager and look a my site under IIS there is an option that reads PHP Manager once i click on it all sort of options do show up. I go all the way to the bottom of the page and click on ENABLE OR DISABLE AN EXTENSION once the PHP Extension do load up i look for: extension=php_sqlsrv_53_ts _vc9.dll right click and enable them extension=php_pdo_sqlsrv_5 3_nts_vc9. dll right click and enable.
Once all this is enable i restart IIS and my server shows a 500 - Internal server error.
There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed error.
I go back to ISS click on my site virtual directory click on Content View and right click on index.php and select browse and this is what i get:
HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error
C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\Addi tional\Ple skPHP5\php -cgi.exe - The FastCGI process exited unexpectedly
I hope this helps!

Can you try moving the dll to C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\Addi tional\Ple skPHP5\ext and trying again.
The php.ini file should be in there as well, is that where you saw the "extension=" lines?
The following registry key should tell you where the php.ini file is as well.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWAR E\PHP\IniF ilePath
