Mixing PHP and ASP.NET under same domain

Question

How PHP mixes with ASP.NET ? Let's say I have an asp.net app under root domain. Then I create a folder where I will put PHP.

Can PHP live under ASP.NET without problem ? Is it necessary that I transform PHP dir into an app under IIS7 ?

PHP is installed. My question is about adding a PHP app under an ASP.NET app not under IIS in general.

Answer 1

PHP will run quite merrily on IIS.

From my experience, I'd advise creating a different AppPools for PHP / .NET.

Answer 2

ASP.NET and PHP will happily co-reside in the same website. From your comments you are asking if it is ok to put your PHP application in a folder of its own and turn this into an application. Yes that is perfectly fine to do.

Just make sure that you've configured PHP properly which means running a non-threadsafe build of PHP using FastCGI:

Using FastCGI to Host PHP Applications on IIS 7

That is the recommended way to run PHP on IIS6 and IIS7 now.

Answer 3

It can be possible. you can run php script in IIS

All the best. :)
