Xitami on Microsoft Windows

This section contains notes and hints specific to Xitami on Windows.

Замечание: You should read the manual installation steps first!

This list describes how to set up the PHP CGI binary to work with Xitami on Windows.

Important for CGI users: Read the faq on cgi.force_redirect for important details. This directive needs to be set to 0. If you want to use $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] you have to enable the cgi.fix_pathinfo directive.

Внимание

Используя установку CGI, ваш сервер открыт для нескольких возможных атак. Пожалуйста, ознакомьтесь с разделом "Безопасность CGI" чтобы узнать, как можно защитить себя от этих атак.

  • Make sure the webserver is running, and point your browser to xitamis admin console (usually http://127.0.0.1/admin), and click on Configuration.

  • Navigate to the Filters, and put the extension which PHP should parse (i.e. .php) into the field File extensions (.xxx).

  • In Filter command or script put the path and name of your PHP CGI executable i.e. C:\php\php.exe for PHP 4, or C:\php\php-cgi.exe for PHP 5.

  • Press the 'Save' icon.

  • Restart the server to reflect changes.

I have successfully configured Xitami using cgi.redirect
in PHP
set cgi.redirect = 1
set cgi.redirect_status = CGI_REDIRECT_STATUS;

in Xitami, defaults.cfg
under CGI_ENVIRONMENT
insert CGI_REDIRECT_STATUS="-"

I am running xitami as a business www server on ms-windows. I have a number of long-running PHP scripts. I developed a tiny java applet to receive and display progressive status information from these slow scripts. It effectively facilitates SERVER PUSH from PHP scripts to IE and Netscape browsers.  Take a look: catalog.net.au/netClient.zip (Ron Boles, Melbourne, Australia)

PHP via ISAPI with XITAMI
I have developed a small GUI in c++, which runs XITAMI and configures the Xitami ISAPI interface for use with PHP. It is so much faster than the PHP cgi interface and appears to be more stable too.

I was only able to get PHP (4.3.3) working under Xitami (2.5c0) on Windows XP (SP1) by adding the following lines to defaults.cfg:

[Mime]
   php=application/x-httpd-php
  
[Filter]
   .php="c:/php/php.exe"

Note the quotation marks and the forward slashes in the filter section.

Using the CGI (c:\php[version]\php.exe) with Xitami since PHP version 4.3.2 requires the following setting in php.ini before the $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] call will return a value:

cgi.fix_pathinfo=1

Note that $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] still works.

[Editors Note]
You can force IE to disregard a cached page by pressing the Control key and click the Refresh button.

Please, do not forget the IE caches files.

I had a test.php and got the error message. I changed the defaults.cfg and also the cgi.force_redirect to = 0. After restarting the Xitami the error message was still there.
After a while I saved the test.php file to test2.php and found that it is working fine...
