asked on

PHP Virtual Machine on a 64 Bit Host

Ok I think I might no why my PHP is not working but I am unsure of how to fix it

I have a Hyper V Host running a Windows 2003 32 Bit Webserver and I am trying to install php onto it.

php errors with the following

%1 is not a valid Win32 application

which I believe to be a 64 bit error

would my theory about running on a 64 bit host agree to this and if so how do I get around it

pepps11976,

It appears you're trying to run a 64-bit PHP interpreter on a 32-bit server.  Check the PHP installer to see if it's 32-bit or 64-bit.  It appears you need the 32-bit version.

Best regards,

There is a little more than just downloading it.  The easiest way on Windows is using the Microsoft Web Platform installer.  http://www.microsoft.com/web/platform/phponwindows.aspx
Hi Dave I have tried using the installer and I still get the same error
Do you have IIS6 running?
