Hi John, thanks again for your reply. Sorry I wasn't specific enough
when saying what the system is. I've double-checked now and it's IIS
7.5 running on Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacenter. It's hosted by a
hosting company and I'm accessing it from a mac running Remote Desktop
Connection.
I followed the steps to install exiftool including renaming the .exe
file when I was originally installing resourcespace. The installation
check says 'OK' for exiftool, but 'FAIL' for EXIF extension installed.
All the paths in config.php are using forward slashes, the paths you
mentioned are all present and $config_windows was already set to true.
I renamed the php.ini file in my windows folder and it now seems to be
picking up the one in my PHP folder, but it is still giving me the
error saying memory_limit needs to be 200M or greater event though it
is set to 2000M. I know that it is picking this file up because when I
change the values for post_max_size and upload_max_filesize it
recognises these changes in the installation check.
Something I noticed today (which I'm fairly certain wasn't there
before) was that there is also this error in my installation check:
GD version Not installed. FAIL
I noticed this before I renamed the php.ini file in the windows
folder. I've checked that php_gd2.dll is in the php/ext folder and
it's set in php.ini
Also something that I think I probably should have mentioned sooner is
that as PHP was already installed on the server before I started
installing resourcespace, I didn't install it into c:/php, but left it
where it was in c:/Program Files (x86)/PHP, but as I made sure the
path in FastCGI pointed to the right place (this step in the guide
http://wiki.resourcespace.org/index.php/Installing_on_Windows_Server_2008_R2_64-bit#Verify_IIS_settings_with_PHP_FastCGI
) and the installation check is picking up the PHP version (it says
4.4.7) I didn't think it would matter, but maybe it does?
Would it be worth installing php again in c:/php? Would this cause any
problems with what's already on the server?
I tried adding this line to the config.php that I found in
config.default.php - $php_path="C:/Program Files (x86)/PHP"; but this
didn't make a difference either.
***update - I just tried installing php to c:/php, but made all the
php pages on our site give bad gateway errors and stop working. It
wouldn't let me change the path in FastCGI to the new location, so I
uninstalled it and put it back where it was. I installed php from
here:
http://windows.php.net/download, which says version 5.3.3 but
the installation check still says I've got version 4.4.7
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by PATH environment variable or
how I would set this. I searched for it on the wiki, but the only
pages that mention it are pages that are referring to different
operating systems (XP and server 2003)
Thanks
