Re: Windows Server 2008 IIS7

Hello,

JC, I apologize that you are having this error with your WP/BP install, and we are doing our best to figure it out.

Paul, As far as JC’s website goes, I took your route of the manual install instead of automatic install, no difference, still had the error.

I ran a ProcessMonitor on his directory and ran into no file permission errors at all, after looking through the windows event logs, I noticed that it was throwing errors regarding the ZendOptimizer.dll on the server. I checked out the requirements for BuddyPress, and no Zend Optimizer is required at all, which I found interesting.

Just to verify that the issue is with the relation between BuddyPress and ZendOptimizer, I went inside the PHP.ini file, commented out the zend configurations, ran an IIS reset to implement the settings, and the site worked perfectly.

My question is, what in BuddyPress, relies on ZendOptimizer? Also, what version do you require?

I found this other thread here, with a BuddyPress site on windows, but using Apache instead of IIS6/7
http://www.developerit.com/2010/05/24/windows-7-apache-crashes-on-any-request
That BuddyPress user describes the same issue we are having here.

My next thoughts are that perhaps the latest version of ZendOptimizer is required, the only problem with that is that we can’t find a current non-threadsafe version of ZendOptimizer, and that is required due to the fact that we are running with FastCGI.

If you have any thoughts on this, please let us know.

P.S. I am unable to change my avatar, I get an error with folder permissions when I attempt to do so :) Just an FYI to the moderators.
