This section contains notes and hints specific to
Xitami on Windows.
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.
| Warning |
By using the CGI setup, your server
is open to several possible attacks. Please read our
CGI security section to learn how to
defend yourself from those attacks. |
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.
