Installing PHP LDAP (or other) extension after using Web Platform Installer
Thursday, August 12th, 2010
I recently used the web platform installer to install IIS 7.5 and PHP on a Windows 7 machine. I also needed to install the LDAP extension, however after some time struggling to use an extension from the PHP site, or from an old install I discovered the best way to do this
- Go to control panel, programs and select your PHP install
- Click on change
- Click next, then change
- Select IIS fast CGI
- Expand the Extensions section and tick the extensions you want to install
- Complete the install
The extension should now be installed.

Detailed PHP errors in IIS 7
Wednesday, September 30th, 2009
After having to solve this problem a number of times I figured I ought to write this down. IIS7 by default will not show detailed PHP error messages, just a friendly 500 error, not much use when debugging.
So to enable detailed errors you need to run the following from the command line:
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe set config -Section:system.webServer/httpErrors -errorMode:Detailed
Then resset IIS with IISReset
