Hi All: I'm pre-flighting a wordpress migration on a development server running IIS6. I followed the instructions for installing PHP and the fast-cgi extension (http://php.net/manual/en/install.windows.iis6.php) and got everything configured and running (php-wise).
I installed WP in a directory and created a new website in IIS Manager...something like "wpTemp.mysite.com". WP runs fine when I access it this way.
My next step was to run it as a virtual directory under an existing website. I created a virtual directory called "wp" under an existing website on the same server, so that my URL looks like "dev.mysite.com/wp". The virtual directory points to the "wpTemp.mysite.com" that I set up initially.
But when I try to browse the app using the virtual path, like "dev.mysite.com/wp/index.php", I'm getting a "404" error. The original URL "wpTemp.mysite.com/index.php" still works fine, so it seems to be a PHP permissions error in the virtual directory?
