Announcements » LinkEX is now Windows IIS compatible

added on Jun 21, 2006 by v0id
After some debugging, and with good help from Max aka. Doctor VIP, I am proud to announce that LinkEX now runs on
Windows IIS platforms also.

There might still be bugs, but hopefully not.

I am running Apache under Windows and I get allways a backslash (\) after the url within the admin area
the url links are looking like this www.yourdomain.com/\/?page=settings or better are interpretd by the browser like
this www.yourdomain.com/%5C/?page=admin&view=settings
Any idea?

btw, I also got an little error (even it's not a real one) within the user area, where people can add a link, the
trailing slashes where always double like ww.yourdomain.com// this was supressed after I have changed the code

define( 'BASEURI', dirname( $uri[0].'x' )."/" );

to

define( 'BASEURI', dirname( $uri[0].'x' ) );

Great finding!

I don't suppose that you have installed the script in the root folder?
Does the above post means that all links are pointing to domain.com// instead of domain.com/linkex/ ?

I'll add your patch right away, and release a new version in a few minutes.

Thanks for the heads up

Aehm, true I installed it in the root :) maybe it shouldn't?
added on Apr 4, 2007 by Zappu
ok,copied it to a subfolder and everything is fine now :) Maybe I should read the intructions next time more closer :)

Lol actually I was just about to post again. The code is fine regarding the BASEURI, the extra 'x' is required to make
dirname() work right :)

If you have any other issues, please let me know. I haven't got any opportunity to test the script on IIS myself..

Have fun using LinkEX :)

and forgett about my error finding, it was also because of that linkex wasn't installed within a sub folder

Gentlemen,

Already reported under bug subject renaming of index.php :

LinkEX is NOT YET IIS 4.0 5.0 5.1 compatible.

The Bug: error 405 METHOD Not allowed, already at first form POST.

The real problem: LinkEX does a post to directory level withouth a filename.php, this is not allowed on IIS (4/5).
Situation version LINKEX: v.20070415, IIS Version: 5.1

Example of the error:
form are posted to: http://somedomain.com/LinkEX/?page=..............

Example of how it should be on iis 4/5:
forms should be posted: http://somedomain.com/LinkEX/filename.php?page=.............

Can it be fixed asap?
If so i can continue testing it on IIS, this bug holds me back already on the first "setup form".
This can be combined with "another name then index.php" this would give a workarround already for this IIS
bug.


Regards,
Gom
