I read it.
” IS, add these 2 lines to a php.ini file and store that file in your webroot ”
web root means ? IS it my blog root ot the Entire server root ?
I installed wordpress on IIS and am only having one problem after the next. As described above, permalinks corrupts frontpage. So I removed frontpage. Now, my wordpress does not have a .htaccess file at all! There is a htaccess.php, but none that starts with a .
Also, I am running a classic asp website, and on the right column, I’m including a file that parses a feed from the blog. It says ‘recent posts to my blog’. It runs perfectly fine, except after includig that, within minutes the site hangs. The site will not work if it is pulling my blog feed file. So including the xml [parser crashes my site. It is using too much resources to parse. I don’t understand this problem.
Either way I love wordpress and I’m willing to persevere until I get it right. So A – gotta make permalinks work with frontpage. B – gotta make those recent posts show up nicely without overtaxing the server. And C – I’m not sure why but I downloaded the errorpage.asp from here http://www.keyboardface.com/iis-permalinks/ and it works nice, but only if the blog is in the /blog directory, not if your blog is the root of the site.
The solution is not at all Clear for me.Can anyone help me out to tackle this ?
I am running WordPress 2.7.1 and when I use the permalink for a friendly url, my static home page returns 404 error. It works fine in instances where I don’t need a static page.
Does anyone know where I can get step by step instructions to setup IIS to support static pages using permalinks in IIS?
