Vanilla won't work with IIS, MySql and PHP on Windows
I installed the latest MySql and PHP on a windows 7 machine with IIS, then Vanilla. Upon starting the installation file, the error appears:
"It appears as though you do not have MySQL enabled for PHP. You will need a working copy of MySQL and PHP’s MySQL extensions enabled in order to run Vanilla."
Unfortunately, if you install PHP with the recommended "fastCGI" for IIS, it does not install the file "php5isapi.dll", which is required by vanilla. Thus, you cannot enable MySQL for PHP. So we're stuck. I read the post at: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/81948/, but it did not answer the question. Can anyone provide a workaround or a version of Vanilla other than vanilla-1.1.10 that will work on IIS?
