I am trying to set up Zenphoto on a Windows 2003 server running IIS 6. I installed and configured PHP on this server using the tutorial at http://peterguy.com/php/install_IIS6.html
When I run the test.php script from that website, everything is fine. However, when I attempt to run setup.php, I only get a prompt to download it. All of my setup on the server looks fine; the application configuration is mapped to handle .php, the Zenphoto folder is inheriting these permissions, etc. and, as I mentioned, the test.php script runs fine.
I am a total PHP noob and have no clue where the problem could be; lots of research hasn't brought up anything that helped. Any ideas?

As an addendum to this- I tried copying the working test.php from the main wwwroot folder to the zenphoto folder and seeing if I had the same problem. I didn't- the test.php file opened fine- no download prompt. In addition, I have not modified any of the zenphoto files in any way.

Sorry, Can't help you here. If you are getting a prompt to download the setup.php file then your server is not treating it as a servable page. As to why the test.php would work and the setup.php would not I have no idea. Perhaps there are file permission problems? Just a guess. Did you try test.php from the zp_core folder?

OK- one problem out of the way...just tried clearing my browser cache and now setup.php is loading- as a blank page. Argh. So now I guess it's a *different* problem with PHP!
"Did you try test.php from the zp_core folder?"
Just tried it and it works fine.
""Perhaps there are file permission problems?"
I checked the permissions and they are identical- they are being inherited from the main wwwroot folder.

I have got a similar problem.
The script is installed successfully and everything works, but when I browse the gallery I sometimes got the question to download "IMG0015.jpg.php" (for example) instead of just viewing the page. I've noticed also that it's more frequent in the admin section, when I try to save something.
Btw after a page reload (or a couple of page reloads) it does work.
Another problem is the blank page. Sometimes when I want to view a picture I just got a blank page. Again, after a page reload the picture is shown or the settings are saved.
If I may guess I would say this is a problem of the host/server. It's not strong enough to load or handle the script. But that's just a guess and I hope it can be solved ...
