I am trying to run PHP via FastCGI on a Windows 2008 server.

I followed this installation doc http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/246/using-fastcgi-to-host-php-applicati

Answer 1

maybe you should try installing VC++ runtime as explained here.

There's a fairly good chance you're missing the correct VC++ runtime for the version of PHP you're running.

If you're running PHP 5.5.x you need to ensure the VC++11 runtime is installed:

Make sure you download and install the x86 version (vcredist_x86.exe), PHP on Windows isn't 64 bit yet.

If you're running PHP 5.4.x then you need to install the VC++9 runtime:
