Screencast on IIS7 Suppport in VS.Php

In VS.Php 2.6 we added support for IIS7 projects. The idea is to allow you to use your local IIS7 webserver instead of the built-in apache server. The new project wizard does the following:

  • Creates a virtual directory on IIS that points to the project location
  • Set the permissions so that IIS can server on that location (usually in the user's projects directory)
  • Configure PHP for FastCGI
  • PHP configuration is per project so each project contains its own PHP configuration with its own unique php.ini file.
  • XDebug is configured by default.
