I have installed PHP with no problems on XP but I'm trying to install on my small business server 2008 server but I'm getting a "HTTP Error 404.17 - Not Found" error. Goggling suggests the problem is because my server is 64bit and phpisapi.dll is 32 bit.
The suggested solution is to set the DefaultAppPool "Enable 32bit applications" to true which I have done but I get a service unavailable error and the DefaultAppPool application pool stops every time I open a PHP page.

Any ideas how to solve this?



Is it possible for me to host a XP virtual machine on my server containing the forum and for ISS on my server to forward and requests to the VM machine?

Plan C is to pay for a hosted service but I'd rather not.

At worst have a Linux VM that'll run PhP?
 
Is it possible for IIS on my main server (sbs2008) to redirect to a VM server hosted by my main server?

I have an ADSL router that forwards ports 80, 443, 25.... to my server so I'm not sure how I could host my fourm on another server.
