I finally fixed the problem by installing another freshly downloaded php install from windows.php.net. I think that the problem was that the php version in Easyphp is thread safe as opposed to non-thread safe which is recommended for IIS/FastCgi.L'extension est actuellement uniquement supportée sur les configurations suivantes :
Windows OS:
Windows XP SP3 avec IIS 5.1 et l'» Extension FastCGI
Windows Server 2003 avec IIS 6.0 et l'» Extension FastCGI
Windows Vista SP1 avec IIS 7.0 et le module FastCGI
Windows Server 2008 avec IIS 7.0 et le module FastCGI
Windows 7 avec IIS 7.5 et le module FastCGI
Windows Server 2008 R2 avec IIS 7.5 et le module FastCGI
PHP:
PHP 5.2.X, Non-thread-safe build
PHP 5.3 X86, Non-thread-safe VC9 build
Note:
L'extension WinCache peut uniquement être utilisée lorsque IIS est configuré pour exécuter PHP via FastCGI.
I finally fixed the problem by installing another freshly downloaded php install from windows.php.net. I think that the problem was that the php version in Easyphp is thread safe as opposed to non-thread safe which is recommended for IIS/FastCgi.Is this supported on Windows 8? I downloaded the WinCache for php5.3 and the one for PHP 5.4. I tried on both and it failed in both cases with the same error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyPHP-DevServer-13.1VC11\binaries\php\php_runningversion\php-cgi.exe - The FastCGI process exited unexpectedly
and yes, I am using php5.4, which comes with easyphp vc11 and I am telling IIS/FastCGI to look for php-cgi in the easyphp folder. That has no problems, except when I try to load this extension, which hoses php for IIS.
