Introducing the method of setting up PHP environment in 2003 server

The 2003 server is a very old operating system, but for some applications, the 2003 server is still required. For website development, if you want to set up a PHP environment on a 2003 server, some additional steps are required. This article will introduce how to set up a PHP environment on the 2003 server.

Step one: Install Internet Information Services (IIS).

IIS is a Web server in the Windows operating system. To set up a PHP environment on the 2003 server, you first need to install IIS. Open Control Panel, select Add/Remove Programs, and then select the Add/Remove Windows Components option. In the pop-up dialog box, find "Internet Information Services (IIS)", check this option, and click the "Next" button to install.

Step 2: Install the PHP interpreter.

After installing IIS, you need to install PHP. The PHP interpreter can be downloaded from the PHP official website. After downloading, double-click the installer and follow the prompts to complete the installation.

Step 3: Set IIS to allow the use of the PHP interpreter.

After installing PHP, you need to add the PHP interpreter to the executable file list of IIS. Open the IIS Management Console, select "Web Service Extension" in the left panel, and then click "Add New Web Service Extension" in the right panel. In the pop-up dialog box, enter the name "PHP", then click the "Add" button, navigate to the directory where the PHP interpreter is located, and select the "php-cgi.exe" file as the executable file. Click the OK button to add PHP.

Step 4: Configure IIS and PHP.

Open the IIS management console, select "Default Website" in the left panel, then right-click the website and select the "Properties" option. In the pop-up dialog box, find the "Homepage" tab and add the "index.php" file as the default website homepage in the "Default Document" list. Then in the "Home" tab, select the "Configuration" button, select "Application Configuration" in the pop-up dialog box, and then click the "Add" button. In the pop-up dialog box, select the "Configuration File" option, and select the "php.ini" file in the directory where the PHP interpreter is located as the configuration file. After completing the configuration, click the "OK" button.

Step 5: Test whether the PHP environment is configured successfully.

Open any text editor that supports PHP and create a simple PHP file, for example:

phpinfo();
?>

Save the file to the default website root directory of IIS (for example, C:\Inetpub\wwwroot) and name the file "index.php". Then enter the server IP address or host name in the browser. If you successfully see the PHP information page, it means that the PHP environment is configured successfully.
