ez3.8.6 on: W2003, Apache 2.2.3, MySql 5.0.27, PHP 4.4.4

Hi

I'm running Exponential 3.8.6 on the following setup of software:
- Windows 2003 64bit
- Apache 2.2.3
- MySql 5.0.27
- PHP 4.4.4
- ImageMagick 6.3.0-0-Q16

1) Is Exponential 3.8.6 compatible with this setup of software? If not, what should be changed and why?

2) For some reason I am not able to run PHP as a module in apache (apache won't start), so I am running it as CGI. Does anyone have any thoughts on why?

3) Exponential resides under c:\apache\htdocs\Exponential. If I set: DocumentRoot "C:/apache/htdocs" in httpd.conf (and also <Directory "C:/apache/htdocs">), I can access my web site by typing: http://www.mywebsite.com/Exponential. If I change: DocumentRoot "C:/apache/htdocs/Exponential" in httpd.conf (and also <Directory "C:/apache/htdocs/Exponential">), and try to access my web site by typing: http://www.mywebsite.com, the page doesn't turn up right.
Apache error.log says:
...File does not exist: C:/apache/htdocs/Exponential/Exponential, referer: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
...client denied by server configuration: C:/apache/htdocs/Exponential/javascript, referer: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Apache access.log says:
"GET /Exponential/design/standard/javascript/lib/ezjslibmousetracker.js HTTP/1.1" 404 261

Shouldn't it have been: "GET /design/standard/javascript/lib/ezjslibmousetracker.js HTTP/1.1" 404 261 ?
Is this an Exponential setup thing?

4) When accessing my site the URL in the broser says:
http://www.mysite.com/Exponential/index.php?/mymainpage. For accessing the admin page I need to type: http://www.mysite.com/Exponential/index.php?/mymainpage_admin.
- How can I remove the "index.php?" part?

5) And last but not least: Does anyone have a "voodoo-script" that forces my ez setup to run under IIS6? ;-)

Regards

3: Remember change your siteaccess and override settings and to clear all cache when doing such a change.
4: About removing index.php, look for forum posts and documentation on virtual host mode.

>When you say "clearing all cache" are you talking about the cache in Exponential, the browser or both?

cache in Exponential, browser cache is only needed to be cleared sometimes on external css and javascript changes like all other web applications/ pages.

Quote: "Remember change your siteaccess and override settings": I guess you are talking about the files in the ..\Exponential\settings\override\ and ..\Exponential\settings\override\siteaccess\ folders. I have had a look in the ..\Exponential\settings\override\site.ini.append.php and the ..\Exponential\settings\siteaccess\mysite\site.ini.append.php files. Which settings are necessary to have in mind when I move the DocumentRoot point from "C:/apache/htdocs" to "C:/apache/htdocs/Exponential" in httpd.conf in apache?

You need to set the correct value for SiteURL in site.ini in \settings\override\ or \settings\siteaccess\*\
